    The first mentions of the castle in Żmigród (German: Trachenberg) date back to the 13th century, although a Slavic stronghold probably existed there earlier. The castle was built by the Silesian princes, and its strategic location on the Barycz River, on the border of Silesia and Greater Poland, made it an object of great defensive and political importance. It was used to control trade routes and was one of the links in a chain of strongholds.

    Castle in Żmigród (German) Schloss Trachenberg. The medieval stronghold (the first mention of this building dates back to 1296) was situated in a naturally defensive place, among swamps and backwaters of the Barycz River.

    A Cossack place. I remember when it was a ruin, and now it is full of life.
