Pieskowa Skała Castle (also known as Zamek Pieskowa Skała) stands in the village of Sułoszowa in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship, on a limestone cliff within Ojców National Park. It is a Renaissance castle, and its setting above the rock gives it a presence that visitors tend to notice as they approach.
What the visit is like
The castle houses museum exhibitions, so a visit is as much about walking through its rooms and displays as it is about admiring the building from outside. Because it sits in a national park, the surrounding landscape of limestone rock and wooded valleys is part of the experience.
Around the castle
Pieskowa Skała is part of the Trail of the Eagles' Nests, a route linking a series of castles on rocky outcrops across the region. Travellers interested in this landscape may find it a natural stop along that trail, and the national park gives plenty of reason to spend more than a single hour in the area.
