오이코프스키 국립공원‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 동굴

This castle was built during the reign of Casimir the Great in the 14th century as a watchtower. Over the centuries, it passed through various hands, for example, in the 17th century, it was owned by magnates. Currently, it houses a branch of the Wawel Royal Castle Museum. Tours are available for a fee.

At least the parking meters in the valley here accept debit cards. That wasn't the case everywhere. The castle itself is unspectacular; apart from the views of the valley, only the entrance gate is impressive. The tower itself offers almost no views, just a continuous loop of films with beautiful aerial shots.

The castle in Ojców is one of the most interesting ruins on the Trail of the Eagles' Nests, located on Castle Hill in the Ojców National Park. It was built in the 14th century on the initiative of Casimir the Great and served as a royal guardhouse. The characteristic defensive tower, entrance gate and fragments of walls, which have undergone conservation work in recent years, have survived to this day. Currently, you can visit not only the courtyard, but also the interior of the tower and the new viewing platform with a panorama of the Prądnik Valley.

Ruins of King Casimir the Great's castle (14th century). Today, the remaining fortifications, some residential quarters, a tower, and an entrance gate remain. The castle also offers beautiful views of the Prądnik Valley, with Chełmowa Góra to the south. Tickets are required to enter.

Attention! Pieskowa, not "sand" as some say ;)

It's worth visiting, the area around Krakow is a real treasure trove of places worth seeing, Ojców - you have to be there ☝️

Before arriving, you need to check carefully the opening times and on what days.

Entry only with a ticket, even to the courtyard, and the choice of tickets is quite large, depending on interest and wallet capacity. :) In 2023 there is no scaffolding. https://pieskowaskala.eu/
