Historical outline:
The brick castle was built in Biecz the most probably in the XIth and the XIVth cent. in the place of the castellan borough from the XIth-XIIIth cent. The first reliable information about Biecz appeared in the document from 1184 already referring to the castellan borough on the present Castle Hill. The castle, for inexplicable reasons was demolished in 1475 on the orders of Kazimierz Jagiellończyk. Its remainders were disassembled by commune heads of Biecz, for which they were granted a permission in 1502 from Aleksander Jagiellończyk. Concurrently since XIVth cent. within the municipal walls there existed a royal court, which was also called a castle.
