Rabsztyn Castle

Highlight • Castle

Update from July 2022:
The renovation of the castle ruins is complete. The castle is open to visitors again. The entrance fee is 15 zł.
Tip: A particularly good service is available free of charge:
Please be sure to install the Android app "Zamek Rabsztyn."
There are numerous numbered information signs in the castle. You can select these in the app and listen to the explanations. Languages: Polish, English, and German.
The castle courtyard has been cleared of rubble and is now much lower than before the renovation.
There is now a modern café in the entrance area.
All corners of the courtyard and the tower are now accessible.
Unfortunately, all the stairs and railings are made of ugly, galvanized steel structures, which are completely out of place for a medieval castle ruin.
I definitely recommend walking around the castle. This gives you a nice impression of this large castle complex, and it's most beautiful from the outside anyway.
The parking lot in front of the castle is subject to a fee.
