PIESKOWA SKAŁA CASTLE

The castle's origins can also be traced back to Casimir the Great in the ^14th century. Initially Gothic, it took on a Renaissance appearance in the ^16th century thanks to its owners, the Szafraniec family, who wanted to turn it into a small Wawel. It has undergone many destructions, but has been restored each time, and today is close to its original state. A museum nestles here, displaying numerous objects, paintings and furnishings from the Middle Ages to the ^19th century.
