Historical outline:

The castle in Wąsosz was erected in the XIVth cent. It was such a solid stronghold that it resisted the Hussites’ siege in 1432. The castle was changing its hands very often and was repeatedly converted. It was nearly completely destroyed during the Thirty Years’ War. The remnants of the stronghold were reconstructed in the XVIIIth cent. in the shape of a baroque mansion, which we can watch up to this day.
