    Hiking

    The Głogów Ducal Castle was built in the second half of the 13th century as the seat of the Duchy of Głogów rulers, with significant expansions in the 15th and 17th centuries. The castle was severely damaged during World War II fighting between German forces and the Red Army in 1945, but was reconstructed between 1971-1983 and now houses the Archaeological and Historical Museum. The medieval cylindrical tower, known as the Hunger Tower due to its basement prison, is the oldest part of the castle and stands 24 meters tall with 2.75-meter thick walls at its base.

    Napoleon Bonaparte stayed at the castle three times during his campaigns, and future Polish King Sigismund I the Old resided here as a prince from 1498-1506.
