The castle was built in the mid-14th century on the orders of Mikołaj Nałęcz from Chomiąża. It was built as part of a major fortification campaign for Poland undertaken during the reign of Casimir the Great[2]. After Nałęcz's death, the castle passed into the hands of the Pomians in the 15th century. In 1420, Mikołaj Pomian gave the castle to the Archdiocese of Gniezno, which established a prison for priests there. In the years 1467–73, it was the residence of the general starost of Wielkopolska, Piotr Nałęcz from Szamotuły.
