The Castle in Mirów
Mirów (0.02 km)
Undoubtedly, it is one of the most beautiful monuments on the Trail of Eagles' Nests. A monumental castle building lies on a hill. For some its shape resembles a boat. In spite of many years of being in ruins it is still fairly impressive. The Mirowska fortress is one of the oldest fortifications of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland. We know that a stone watchtower was erected in the mid-fourteenth century, during the reign of Casimir the Great.

The Ruins of the Watchtower in Łutowiec
Łutowiec (2.44 km)
Łutowiec is an inconspicuous village (formerly known as Oltowiec or Holtowiec). It is an old village, mentioned for the first time at the end of the fourteenth century. A medieval watchtower, of which remains have been preserved on one of the rock outcroppings, is one of the most mysterious objects of this kind in the Jura. It was probably founded in the fourteenth century, but already in the next century, it became abandoned and was beginning to fall into ruin.

Strażnica obronna w Przewodziszowicach
(6.58 km)
W pobliżu miejscowości Przewodziszowice na Wyżynie Krakowsko-Częstochowskiej, znajdują się ruiny jednego z mniejszych Orlich Gniazd. Tutejsza strażnica obronna zbudowana została prawdopodobnie w XIV, lub też na przełomie XIV i XV wieku. Inicjatorem jej wzniesienia był albo król Kazimierz Wielki, albo książę Władysław Opolczyk. Obiekt na pewien czas w XV wieku stał się siedzibą rycerza-rozbójnika Kornicza, zwanego Siestrzeńcem, który - według legendy - ukrył tu zrabowane skarby.
