Będzin Castle
Będzin Castle is a 14th‑century stone fortress in the town of Będzin in southern Poland, built during the reign of Casimir III the Great on the site of an earlier wooden fort. It functioned as a frontier stronghold in Lesser Poland and later housed a museum in the 20th century. The medieval complex is characterised by two main towers, multiple concentric curtain walls and a direct connection to the town's defensive walls.

As it stood in 1348
The shape it held in its prime.
A compact medieval stone fortress set within the medieval town of Będzin, dominated by two main towers — one cylindrical and one square — with smaller stone buildings attached to their bases. The plan shows three concentric layers of curtain walls stepping inward toward an inner bailey; the castle fabric is of dressed stone masonry. The silhouette is defined by the paired towers rising above the layered curtain walls and the continuous masonry link to the town walls.
