Lublin Castle

Lublin Castle is a medieval fortress on a hill at the edge of Lublin's Old Town; its oldest element is a cylindrical stone keep from the 13th century. Largely rebuilt in an English Neo-Gothic style in 1826–1828, the complex now houses the National Museum.

As it stood in 1828

The shape it held in its prime.

A long, low castle block of smooth, pale cream plastered masonry with a continuous crenellated parapet and narrow Gothic-style vertical window slits runs along the ridge; midway rises a tall, cylindrical red-brick keep with a white machicolation band near its top and a small dark cylindrical lantern above. Small corner turrets with pointed spires and a green-patinated pitched roof on a subsidiary wing punctuate the skyline; the whole sits on a wooded hill above town rooftops.
