Bolczów Castle
Poland, Poland
Bolczów Castle, located in Janowice Wielkie in Poland's Rudawy Janowickie mountains, is a 14th-century Gothic ruin dramatically integrated into rocky granite outcrops, first mentioned in 1375 as the property of knight Clericus Bolze, burgrave of nearby Sokolec. Built around 1371-1386 to oversee local mines and lands, it was destroyed by Hussites in 1428-1433, rebuilt in Renaissance style in the 16th century by owners like Hans Dippold von Burghaus and Justus Decius with added bastions and artillery adaptations, then twice captured and burned by Swedes in 1645 during the Thirty Years' War, after which it was abandoned.
