Oława Castle, Renaissance-Baroque castle in Oława, Poland.
The castle features a prominent two-level pavilion on its western side, constructed in early-Baroque style by Italian master architects during the seventeenth century.
Duke Ludwik I built the original Gothic castle in the fourteenth century, which later underwent reconstruction by master Jakub of Milan and Bernard Niuron in 1588.
The castle represents the architectural evolution from Gothic to Renaissance and Baroque periods, reflecting the changing tastes of successive ruling families.
The structure now functions partially as a rectory for the parish church of St. Apostle Peter and Paul, allowing visitors to examine its architectural details.
The castle contained a terraced garden designed by Italian architects, which deteriorated rapidly due to its incompatibility with the Polish climate conditions.
