The medieval castle was erected during the reign of Casimir the Great, probably before 1360. The castle was surrounded by brick defensive walls on a rectangular plan with a round tower in the corner. It was a defensive tower (bergfried) where, in the event of the castle being captured, the crew could take refuge and continue their defense. The entrance to the castle was possible through a rectangular gatehouse and a drawbridge. The stronghold was surrounded by a moat that was connected to the lake. In the middle of the 16th century, the castle was rebuilt and the tower was decorated with an attic. From the 18th century, the castle was not renovated and fell into ruin. In the 19th century, the remains of the castle were rebuilt into an evangelical church in the neo-Gothic style, and the tower was converted into a belfry. In 1977, the Municipal Cultural Center and the District Museum began operating in the castle.
