Museum-Castle in Łańcut

The castle is one of the best-preserved magnate residences in Poland. It was built in the `irst half of the 17th century based on a defensive structure previously existing in this place. It was reconstructed by Stanisław Lubomirski, who surrounded the baroque residence with the most modern bastion-type forti`ications of the time. This allowed it to survive the Swedish deluge and the Rakoczi invasion. The bastions were later converted into gardens, and the castle itself was turned into a museum after World War II. The preserved interiors impress with their state of preservation, rich furnishings and stucco.
