Wleń, Medieval city in Lower Silesia, Poland
Wleń stands at 260 meters above sea level on the Bóbr river, surrounded by rolling hills of the Lower Silesian landscape.
The settlement received city rights before 1261 and developed around one of Poland's oldest stone castles, established by Duke Henry I the Bearded in 1214.
The Market Square features a Neoclassical Town Hall, while the Gothic Revival Saint Nicholas Church displays the architectural evolution of this Lower Silesian town.
The municipality occupies 7.22 square kilometers and maintains regular public transportation connections to neighboring cities in Lower Silesia.
The cylindrical Gothic tower and sections of a Romanesque house from the 12th century remain as evidence of the earliest stone castle construction in Poland.
