Chudów, Village with Renaissance castle in Gmina Gierałtowice, Poland.
Located in the Silesian Voivodeship, Chudów sits 12 kilometers southeast of Gliwice and 16 kilometers west of Katowice, surrounded by agricultural fields.
The village received its first written mention in 1295 in the Latin manuscript Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis, documenting early regional settlements.
The Chudów Castle Foundation organizes a medieval fair each August, featuring historical demonstrations and traditional regional crafts from Upper Silesia.
Visitors can explore the medieval Gothic cocklestove tiles exhibition inside the restored castle tower, which displays archaeological findings from the site.
The castle entrance originally featured a drawbridge spanning across a moat that led directly into the four-sided tower, which remains partially preserved.
