Karpniki, Mountain village in Jelenia Góra Valley, Poland

The village stands in a region bordered by four mountain ranges: Karkonosze, Rudawy Janowickie, Kaczawskie Mountains, and Izery Mountains.

The first records of Karpniki date to the 13th century when the settlement belonged to the territory of the Piast dynasty in fragmented Poland.

The 15th-century castle underwent reconstruction in 1844 following designs by Friedrich August Stüler for Prince Wilhelm of Prussia.

Located 10 kilometers from Jelenia Góra, the village provides access to mountain trails and serves as a starting point for regional exploration.

The castle hosted the confirmation ceremony of Marie of Prussia in 1842, attended by King Frederick William IV and Elisabeth Ludovika of Bavaria.
