Yesterday, on our way to Krynica Zdrój, we stopped in Czchów. The Tropsztyn Castle is located by the route. I have traveled this way many times but never had enough time for photos. And now was the time and the weather. Such a short film.

It was built by the Gierałtów-Ośmiorogi family to protect the so-called The Sądecka Gate, through which a water and land route led towards Hungary. Wooden buildings could have been built in the 13th century, however, the first mentions of a brick castle come from 1382. At that time, there were high walls on a square plan. The buildings inside the walls were still wooden. Only the next owners, the Chebdowie, erected the first brick buildings, especially a high, massive tower in the north-west corner of the castle. in later years the Kmita family held the castle in their hands.

Nicely done.    

Fascinating to watch

There are many beautiful castles in our mountains, some of which are being rebuilt
