Fischbach Castle
Fischbach Castle is a hotel in Karpniki housed in a building with walls dating to the 16th century and containing multiple room types throughout its structure. The property blends medieval stone walls with Renaissance details, modern suites, and a restaurant serving European cuisine.
The castle was built in the 15th century and was held by the Schaffgotsch family for centuries, who made extensive renovations from the 15th through the 19th century. Royal owners later included Wilhelm of Prussia and the House of Hesse, who used it as a summer residence and for hunting.
The name Karpniki reflects its roots in the Silesian region, connecting the castle to centuries of local heritage. Visitors walking through can see how different royal families shaped the interior spaces, from the library cabinet to the wood paneling that shows their tastes and values.
The hotel offers various room types within the main building, from standard options to special apartments suited for different needs. Spa facilities with relaxation areas and a restaurant are available on-site, so guests can find most amenities within the property.
The castle underwent careful restoration between 2010 and 2014 while preserving original elements such as a 19th-century library cabinet and historic wooden floors. The property also employs sustainable energy by drawing water from a deep well to heat the buildings.
