Dębno, Brzesko County

Dębno is a village in Lesser Poland Voivodeship with traditional Polish architecture distributed across gentle slopes and connected by winding streets. The settlement consists of residential buildings and farmsteads that shape the character of this rural area.

The settlement originated in the 14th century under the rule of the Odrowąż family, who established their first fortifications here. The castle with its characteristic four-tower design dates from the late 15th century.

The Church of Saint Michael the Archangel shapes the village's character with its Gothic design and impresses visitors with elaborate painted decorations covering the interior walls. This ornamental work dates from the early 16th century and demonstrates the skilled craftsmanship of that era.

Visitors can reach the village by taking regional buses from Kraków to Brzesko and then a local connection to the village center. The best time to explore is the warm season when rural roads are easily accessible.

The castle was constructed without using metal nails, and the well in the courtyard dates from the original building period. This building technique was typical of specialized craftsmen from that era.
