Zamek Dunajec, Medieval castle museum in Niedzica, Poland

The castle stands on a limestone hill at 566 meters elevation, situated 300 meters from the Dunajec River overlooking the Czorsztyn Lake.

Built in the early 14th century by Kokosz Berzevicy, the fortress served as a Hungarian watchtower on the Polish border until the end of World War I.

The castle museum displays period furniture, antique clocks, art collections, and weapons across multiple chambers that reflect the lifestyle of Hungarian noble families.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 to 15:30 in winter months, and daily from 9:00 to 18:30 during the summer season.

The castle holds an Incan quipu, a knotted cord system of recording information, discovered after World War II that allegedly contains details about hidden treasures.
