The tower was built by Prince Bolesław I, around 1330. Now, it is all that remains after the Piast dynasty's castle. The tower's foundation is a 6m thick stone layer. The lower part of the wall is approx. 3m thick. Over the centuries, the pinnacle of the tower was rebuilt many times. This Gothic tower, together with the helm is 51m high. The castle, which formerly incorporated the tower, was demolished in 1928-1931.
