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. pl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zamek_w_Lanckorona

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