The defensive walls in Recz were built of field stone, probably with a brick superstructure. They did not have battlements, it is possible that they were topped with hoardings. They had a thickness of about 1.10 - 1.20 meters, and their height at the highest point reached 5 meters. In the second half of the fourteenth century, the wall was raised to a height of 6 - 7 meters. Their full circumference was about 1,470 meters and was reinforced with evenly spaced towers.

The best preserved fragment of the defensive walls of Recz. The walls were built in the 14th-15th century from field stones. They were about 1.10-1.20 m thick, and at their highest point they reached a height of 5 m. The outline of the walls has been preserved on almost the entire perimeter, but most often it is just a low wall. In this place, in addition to the wall, two towers have also been preserved.
