Ruins of a medieval castle. At the moment the area is fenced, with no access.
In the clearing in front of the ruins there is one small shelter and many other benches.

According to written sources, the castle in Lanckorona, also known as Lanckorona Castle, was built by Casimir the Great in the mid-14th century; it guarded the border between the Kraków region and the Duchy of Oświęcim, whose ruler John I Scholasticus paid homage to the Czech king John of Luxembourg in 1327. At that time, the border ran at the foot of Lanckorona Mountain, west of the hill.

Not far from the castle ruins there is a tourist shelter (2 benches and a table) with a nice view.
