Driving directions:15 km north-east of Jelenia Góra lies Wojcieszów. Driving from it down the road no 328 to Świerzawa you need to drive along the main road through Świerzawa. Just at the end of the place, there is a railroad station on the right side, and directly opposite to it, across the road – a bridge and road to Lubiechowa. You need to turn into that road and after covering 100 m, there stands a manor on the right side, where a commune council has its place, and in the back of it there is a medieval tower.
Historical outline:Former name: Röversdorf
History of erection of a residential Tower in Sędziszów is unknown. It is common knowledge that it was constructed in the Middle Ages, and during the rebuilding from the XVIIth cent. lost its defensive nature, but it gained an entrance portal. The following reconstruction from the XVIIIth cent. enriched the tower with crenels, in other words characteristic "cogs" on its top.
