This castle was built during the reign of Casimir the Great in the 14th century as a watchtower. Over the centuries, it passed through various hands, for example, in the 17th century, it was owned by magnates. Currently, it houses a branch of the Wawel Royal Castle Museum. Tours are available for a fee.

Hiking

For years, Pieskowa Skała was repeatedly covered in scaffolding in various places. Construction and renovation work were constantly underway. But now this magnificent castle complex shines in new splendor. Truly worth seeing. Inside, there's a museum, although it's not open on Mondays.

Hiking

Entrance to the museum costs 11 zl. The courtyard can only be visited with a museum ticket. The museum on the 1st and 2nd floor displays valuable exhibits from the 17th to the 19th century. Really worth seeing!
