Grodziec Castle

Nedre Schlesien · Polen · Castle

The medieval castle of Grodziec crowns an extinct volcanic cone in Lower Silesia and ranks among the region's most evocative strongholds. Its best-known ghost is the "Red Spectre" (Czerwony Upiór), a knightly figure in a crimson cloak who, according to legend, appeared before the harsh castellan Jan and compelled him to change his ways – ever since, the spectre is said to return as a guardian of justice at the castle. Visitors tell of a figure in red glimpsed in window openings and along the battlements. The castle hosts overnight stays and torch-lit events.
