Wartenberg Castle in Przegorzały may look old, but it was only built by the Nazis during World War II.
Today, the castle houses the Zinar Castle Hotel and the Ziyad Restaurant. The terraces offer a panoramic view of the southwestern part of Kraków and the Beskid Mountains.
The castle's initiator was Baron Otto von Wächter, who was appointed Governor of the Kraków District during the occupation as a reward for his participation in the Nazi putsch in Austria (the assassination of Chancellor Dolfuss).
