About this experience

If you appreciate unique architecture, you must visit one of the gems of the Opolskie Region—Moszna Castle, which is conveniently located not far from Wroclaw. Fans of Walt Disney or Harry Potter will find it especially enchanting, as it resembles Hogwarts or a castle from a fairy tale. Originally built in the 18th century as a Baroque palace, Moszna Castle underwent significant transformations after a fire in 1896. The then-residents, the Tiele-Winckler family, restored and reshaped it, adding the eastern part in neo-Gothic style and the west wing in Neo-Renaissance style. The castle boasts 99 towers and 365 rooms, each telling its own story. Remarkably, it was spared from destruction during World War II, preserving its historical and architectural integrity for visitors to enjoy today.
