Kłodzko straddles the Nysa Kłodzka River in Lower Silesia’s Kłodzko Valley, a position that made it a strategic town on routes through the Sudetes. Above the centre, the vast Kłodzko Fortress occupies Castle Mountain; its present form largely reflects seventeenth- and eighteenth-century military rebuilding. The old town’s stone St John Bridge, decorated with Baroque statues, crosses the river and recalls Kłodzko’s historic links with the County of Kladsko.
