The Hunger Tower is located in the Przewóz Park, in the town of the same name, Przewóz, opposite the German town of Podrosche.
If you are travelling on the Neisse cycle path, don't be afraid to take a detour. It is about 1 km from the border crossing.

The Hunger Tower owes its name to the starvation death of Balthasar.

In an idyllic park not far from the Neisse River lies the remains of a castle complex. The Hunger Tower was named after Duke John II, who killed his brother Balthasar by starving him of food.
