Built by King Casimir the Great (hence the name) in 1340, the understated elegance of Casimir Castle is worth a look. It remains the oldest structure in town and is the setting for many events organised by the ZAMEK Culture & Science Centre, including concerts, theatre and dance performances, even board game get-togethers. Inside you can see the royal regalia of King Casimir and explore the spooky dungeons.

The phenomenal wooded grounds of Castle Park (Park Zamkowy) are as fundamental a component of the site as the castle itself. Centuries-old lime trees hum with thousands of honeybees in summer, and you can actually walk from this park to Zniesienie Hill for more lovely views.

No tours are provided in English (PL only) but there are pamphlets available upon request.
