Chojnik Castle - a place worth to visit near Karpacz

Chojnik Castle is a necessary place to visit for every tourist on the trail from the Sadyba Hotel Spa Karpacz. It is a fortress rising on the summit of the Karkonosze, near Jelenia Góra. It has a height of 627 meters above sea level and is known for its fortified structure dating back to the fourteenth century and the Piast dynasty. The name of the building from German means "mountain covered with Christmas trees", because at one time it belonged to German owners. The location of the building is also unusual, because in addition to the steep hill it is surrounded on one side by a chasm. The castle was expanded several times, that's why it gained the name of a stone fortress. In 1675 the castle suffered significant damage due to lightning caused by fire and failed to return to its former form.
