There is also a tale about two twin brothers, owners of castles in Mirów and Bobolice. She is still said to haunt the stronghold as a lady in white. At Bobolice castle, the gentle crest Dołęga ( Dołęga coat of arms), is placed above the gate stronghold.Īccording to 15th century chronicles, a representative of the Krezowie family captured and imprisoned his niece in the Bobolice Castle. From that time on, the stronghold was owned by a number of families, including Dołęga ( Dołęga coat of arms), Szafrańcowie, Trestkowie, Krezowie ( Ostoja coat of arms owners from 1486) and later Chodakowscy, Męcińscy and Myszkowscy ( Jastrzębiec coat of arms owners of the neighbouring Mirów Castle). Dissatisfied with their behaviour, the Polish king Władysław Jagiełło invaded Bobolice in 1396 and took over the castle with adjacent estates. Nine years later Opolczyk leased the castle to Andrzej Schoen, a Hungarian from Barbalas the new owner manned it with Germans and Czechs, who robbed local inhabitants and conspired with the Teutonic Order.
In 1370, immediately after becoming King of Poland, Louis I the Great granted the castle to Władysław Opolczyk, Duke of Opole, as a prize for his support of the king’s dynastic plans.
The castle was a part of the defence system of royal strongholds protecting the western border of Poland on the side of Silesia. The castle in Bobolice was built by King Casimir III the Great in the middle of the 14th century, probably in place of an earlier wooden structure. The complex is located within a semi-mountainous highland region called the Polish Jura. The Bobolice Castle is a 14th-century royal castle in the village of Bobolice, Poland.
