Bobolice Castle

Bobolice Castle is a 14th-century royal stone stronghold built by King Casimir III the Great, located on a steep limestone hill in the Polish Jura near the village of Bobolice. It formed part of a chain of fortified sites along the Polish-Silesian border and survives today as a ruined hilltop castle undergoing reconstruction.

The shape it held in its prime.

Perched atop a steep white-limestone crag, the castle presents a compact silhouette of a two-storey residential building set into the rock with the remains of a cylindrical wall tower and stretches of curtain wall with battlements. The stone is local pale limestone, now broken by tall vertical window and arrow-slit openings; at prime the rooflines and crenellated parapets would have been continuous. The site sits above wooded slopes and was reached across a dry moat and drawbridge.
