Bielsko-Biała Museum and Castle, Gothic castle in Bielsko-Biała, Poland
The castle stands at the highest point of the old town, featuring a rectangular courtyard and four corner towers with defensive walls.
Initially constructed in the 14th century as a border stronghold between the Duchies of Cieszyn and Oświęcim, the castle served as a strategic defense point.
The castle houses the Bielsko-Biała Museum with exhibitions spanning from 15th-century art to regional history and traditional craftsmanship collections.
The museum offers guided tours in multiple languages, and visitors can access the castle tower for views over the city center.
Between 1899 and 1973, the eastern facade contained a row of shops integrated into the castle structure, replaced now by a brick retaining wall.
