Srebrna Gora

Srebrna Góra is best known in Poland for the Srebrna Góra Fortress, an 18th-century Prussian stronghold. The town occupies a pass in the Sudetes, between the Owl Mountains and the Bardzkie Mountains, and its steep setting helped determine the fortress’s defensive role. Commissioned by Frederick II of Prussia after Silesia came under Prussian rule, the complex was built from 1765 to 1777; its central donjon remains its defining structure. Today, this small Lower Silesian settlement is closely identified with the fortress and with routes through the surrounding mountain country.
