History
The castle was first mentioned in 1537. It is most likely that the castle was built by Mikołaj Firlej at the beginning of the sixteenth century, while the castle was expanded by his son, Piotr, the Voivode of the Ruski Voivodeship. The bastion, used as a residence, was destroyed by the Swedish army in 1655 during The Deluge. Although the following owners of the castle did their very best to rebuild the castle, the castle never managed to gains its former glory. In 1928, an archaeologist, Leon Kozłowski had taken over the castle, but his plans to reconstruct the castle were stopped by the Second World War. After the Second World War, the castle was left in its former state, being one of many private castles. In 1975, the castle was bought by the Nadwiślańskie Museum in Kazimierz Dolny in Poland.
