Beautiful nice castle, miraculously preserved and continuously renovated. There's a short climb from the main street to the gate but nothing challenging. There's a big restaurant and souvenir shop up front, and ticket stand near the entry to the historical part. Every hour a guided tour begins (included in the ticket price) and guides (especially Mr. Andrzej!) are super entertaining and honestly involved with the place, working there for many years. You get to see some historical exhibitions, stuffed animals display, small torture chamber cellar, climb a tower to see a breathtaking view and throw a coin into the wishing well (or touch wishing wall if you miss the well). I'd definitely recommend stopping by and joining a tour.

Lovely castle that you can visit at your own pace with an audioguide. The information provided is interesting but an option to learn more of the details was not provided. The castle itself is beautiful, renovated in parts with respect for its history. Climbing the tower gives you a wonderful view of the surroundings. We were a bit worried about conservation as some of the paintings, chairs and tables seem to be exposed to the elements. When visiting, take into account a 10min uphill hike on medium rough terrain. If you have mobility issues you can drive up to the castle, but inside it will be difficult to visit. Also dogs are not allowed. If you are in the neighbourhood, give this lovely castle a visit.

Not the most impressive castle I ever visited. The sundial and the torture room was the best part about it if I had to pick... The tickets were expensive compared to other castles that have more to offer like Gołuchów Castle. The armors and weapons were also made of cardboard. I was hoping we could see the view from the tower but unfortunately it was closed. Instead there was a room where you could lie down and watch a movie about this place, which was really nice. Over all it wasn't a bad experience but I recommend Gołuchów castle more.

Z głębokim żalem muszę wyrazić moje niezadowolenie, które zrodziło się podczas niedawnej wizyty w waszej karczmie, gdzie zamiast królewskiej uczty, doświadczyłem tylko zawodu. Nie spożywam mięsa, z wielką nadzieją zwróciłem się z prośbą o zamówienie klusek śląskich bez dodatku mięsnego. Niestety, spotkałem się z niezrozumieniem, które graniczy z najwyższą niewspółczuciem. Wasza odpowiedź, że kluski mogą być podane osobno, ale tylko w zestawie z mięsem, zdumiewa mnie brakiem logiki i elastyczności. Takie zasady wydają się być reliktem dawnych czasów, które w dobie obecnego szacunku dla różnorodności dietetycznej powinny być już dawno zmodernizowane. Miejsce, które mogłoby święcić triumfy jako oaza gościnności i zrozumienia, staje się twierdzą prostactwa, odstraszającym zarówno wegetarian, jak i tych, którzy cenią sobie wybór i osobiste preferencje. Można by oczekiwać, że w lokalu takim jak Wasz, znajdzie się miejsce na elastyczność i dostosowanie do potrzeb każdego gościa... Apeluję o przemyślenie Waszych zasad i podejście, które obecnie zniechęca i odstrasza, zamiast przyciągać i zachwycać. Niech ta opinia posłuży jako wezwanie do podniesienia standardów obsługi i kulinarnego zrozumienia, które są godne współczesnego świata, pełnego różnorodności i szacunku dla każdego klienta.

A spectacular castle characterizes by its unique construction style and organic pattern. It was built in 1193 around a watch tower which was built around 850. The castle is situated on top of the Choina mountain. There is a legend that Princess Margareta was starved to death in this castle. The entry fee is 20 zl. It takes 15-20 minutes to climb up to the castle from the parking lot at the hill of the mountain.

The guide was well-educated about the castle and interacted with the tourists all the time. The castle itself is worth visiting as well, but the cashier, who was selling the tickets and souvenirs, was really rude, so my marks are as following: guide 5, castle 4, cashier 0. The owner of the business has to tell that so called lady, that she has no right to talk to people in such a rude manner!
