Fürstenstein Castle (Polish: Zamek Książ) is the largest castle in Silesia. It is located on the northern outskirts of the town of Wałbrzych (Waldenburg) in the district of Książ (Fürstenstein) in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship of Poland. It is also a popular destination for locals at any time of the day or year.

Stary Książ Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Unfortunately, this time I was on a trip and there was no time to visit the ruins, but if you delay it, you will not escape. You will reach the ruins when you return to the parking lot and turn right onto the forest path.

Anyone who is on the beautiful Hochbergow hiking trail from Ksiez Castle to the ruins of the old princely castle will certainly pass by here.

Terrace with a view of Książ Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this place there is probably the most beautiful view of the Książ Castle. At the bottom of the terrace there is a path to the ruins of the old castle.

Książ Castle in all its glory

Highlight • Castle

The view of the castle from the front is impressive. It's similar with the interior of the castle. I recommend visiting the castle with an audioguide set.
