Castle of Casimir the Great

Zamek Kazimierzowski, Peremishl Castle
Poland, Przemysl
The castle of Casimir the Great was the most famous building in the Principality of Galich in the 12th century. The palace is located on the Castle Hill near the San River, at an altitude of 270 meters above sea level. The first stone Gothic castle was built in 1340 for Casimir III. In 1616, by order of the headman Mikhail Krasitsky, the castle was rebuilt in the Renaissance style, turning it into a residence castle. During the First World War, the Austrians kept prisoners of war in the castle. At the end of the 20th century, work was carried out to restore the southwestern wall and both adjoining towers. Only the entrance gate in the form of an arch and some walls and towers have survived to this day.

Casimir Castle is located on Castle Hill, by order of the Polish King Casimir III the Great. Unfortunately, we were unable to get inside. It was snowing heavily and beautiful photos also did not work out. But we walked around the area. There is a park around the castle, and a large wide road leads to it, the rise is not very sharp. In good sunny weather, you can take beautiful panoramic pictures of the city. I think we would have enjoyed it more at a different time of the year.
