This Silesian Piasts' fortress was erected in 1292 by Bolko I the Strict.
Chojnik Castle is a castle located above the town of Sobieszów, today part of Jelenia Góra in southwestern Poland. Its remains stand on top of the Chojnik hill (627 m (2,057 ft)) within the Karkonosze National Park, overlooking the Jelenia Góra valley.
Today the semi-ruined stronghold is a major tourist attraction and houses a hotel and a restaurant.
