The castle of the masters (Polish kings) of the Piasts is considered the main attraction of the city of Legnica (on Dolny Slenzka or in Lower Silesia). Before the war, Legnica was called Liegnitz - Old Town. Historical research indicates that the first fortification at the confluence of the Cherna Voda and Kachava rivers appeared in the eighth century. Around 985, during the reign of Mieczyslov (Mieszko) the First (Mieszko I), the first known Polish Prince, wooden fortresses were erected in Wroclaw, Opole and Legnica to protect Silesia.→
