Karłowice Castle, Gothic castle in Karłowice, Poland

The defensive castle stands on a trapezoidal layout with a cylindrical tower reaching 25 meters in height near the Strobawa river.

The castle was constructed in the 14th century by the Czambor de Kertzendorf family and later owned by the von Beess family and Piast dynasty.

The castle complex includes a Baroque chapel from 1715, which replaced the original residential building and now functions as an Evangelical church.

The castle remains in private ownership and includes multiple preserved structures such as a granary, mill, coach house, and governor's residence.

The cylindrical tower features walls measuring 2.5 meters thick at ground level, demonstrating its strategic defensive capabilities.
