Rzeszów Castle, Castle in Rzeszów, Poland

The castle features a quadrate structure with a central courtyard and a 55-meter-high gate tower crowned by a Baroque dome.

Built in 1600, the fortress underwent transformation from wooden defenses to stone walls under Mikołaj Spytek Ligęza's supervision in 1620.

The castle walls display memorial plaques commemorating victims of Stalinism and lawyers who suffered during wartime persecution.

The District Court occupies the castle premises, which remained a prison facility until 1981 under various administrative authorities.

The castle grounds contain the only remaining parts of the original complex: the gatehouse and four corner bastion fortifications.
