Culture and History
The Gothic fortifications of Byczyna were built from stone and brick in the 15th and 16th centuries.
The fortifications include the almost completely preserved defensive wall surrounding the old town, the Polish and German gate towers, the Piaskowa Tower, and a preserved section of the water-filled moat, which is more than 100 meters long.
Byczyna is a small historic town in southern Poland. It is located on the Wieruszowska Upland in the northern part of the Opole Voivodeship.
In the surrounding area, there is a replica of a medieval castle that serves as a Polish-Czech center for knight training. This particularly appeals to travelers who take medieval themes and historical reenactment into account when choosing a destination.
