Biskupská kupa, Mountain summit at Czech-Polish border.

The peak reaches 890 meters above sea level and stands as the highest point of the Opawskie Mountains in the Eastern Sudetes range.

In 1898, construction workers completed a stone observation tower on the summit to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Emperor Franz Joseph I's reign.

The mountain name derives from its position marking the historical boundaries between the bishoprics of Olomouc and Krakow during medieval times.

The observation tower remains open to visitors from May through October, providing viewing opportunities across multiple countries including Poland and Czech Republic.

From the summit tower, observers can see the city of Wrocław and the peaks of High Tatras mountains during days with clear visibility conditions.
