Strzelce Opolskie Castle, Renaissance castle in Strzelce Opolskie, Poland.
The stone structure stands with its rectangular layout of 16.1 by 13.9 meters, featuring a central limestone tower near the Opole region.
The castle originated as a wooden hunting lodge in the 13th century before Duke Albert transformed it into a stone fortress with fortifications in the 1300s.
The residence belonged to several noble families, including the Piasts of Niemodlin, the Piasts of Opole, and later the Colonna family until the 19th century.
Located at coordinates 50°30'32"N and 18°17'54"E, the castle sits on Zamkowa Street in the center of Strzelce Opolskie, accessible to visitors.
Soviet troops set fire to the castle on January 21, 1945, during their advance, resulting in substantial damage that remains visible in its current state.
