Kliczków: Castle, Park and Trails

• The audio-guided tour of Zamek Kliczków includes the Sala Dworska and the castle cellars, which house the Muzeum Średniowiecza exhibition.
• The route leads from the souvenir shop through the castle corridors across four floors.
• At the top of Wieża Jenny is a viewing platform overlooking the park, the castle courtyards and nearby forests.
• The old castle park extends as far as a drained moat that once completely surrounded the castle.
• The park is home to a historic cemetery for horses and dogs belonging to the former castle owners.

The audio-guided castle tour begins at the souvenir shop and passes through the corridors across four floors. The tour includes the Sala Dworska and the castle cellars, where the Muzeum Średniowiecza exhibition is located. This identifies both the route through the building and two specific stops.

When deciding what interests you about a castle visit, you can distinguish these interior spaces from the viewpoints and traces in the park. The stops mentioned cover different aspects of the castle: a hall and the exhibition in the cellars. The tour thus combines a route across four floors with the hall and the exhibition in the cellars.

The viewing platform of Wieża Jenny is at the top of the tower and is surrounded by medieval battlements. From there, the view extends across the park, the castle courtyards and the nearby forests. The viewpoint offers a different focus from the interior rooms: it centers on views of the complex and the surrounding landscape.

The old castle park also points to the site's former layout. It extends as far as the drained moat that once completely surrounded the castle. The moat is dry today; its former role as an enclosure around the entire castle is part of the castle's historical description. The views and the park's history therefore offer two different ways of looking at Kliczków.

A riding trail runs from Kliczków in the direction of Przewóz. A walk closer to the destination is a separate option: a path along the riverbank leads to a geological trail featuring the rock formations Dzban and Pupa Słonia.

A few metres farther along this described route, you can climb a wooden observation tower. The walk thus combines a riverbank path, a geological trail and two named rock formations with another viewpoint. The riding trail from Kliczków in the direction of Przewóz is a separate route from this walk.

A historic cemetery for horses and dogs belonging to the former castle owners is located in the park of Zamek Kliczków. It is one of three cemeteries of its kind in Europe. The cemetery connects the history of the park with the former castle owners and their animals.
