Update: Admission now costs 18 zloty and 9 zloty for children. (As of 2021)
That's a price increase of 450% in just two years.However, some renovations have been carried out in the meantime, and visitor safety has been improved. A steel staircase to the keep was added, and an ugly, steel viewing platform was built.In return, all you get to see is the keep, the entrance gate, and the deep well. I repeat: The castle looks more impressive from the outside than from the inside.
