Monument to the Children of Głogów

Highlight • Monument

The Monument to the Children of Głogów, located near the Głogów Dukes' Castle, commemorates the tragic events of 1109 when German King Henry V tied local children to siege machines during his assault on the fortress.

The monument was designed by Bulgarian sculptor Dimitri Petrov Vacev and unveiled on September 1, 1979, built from public donations initiated by the Głogów Cultural Society. The granite sculpture depicts children bound to siege machinery, symbolizing their suffering and desire for freedom, with an inscription from Gallus Anonymus's chronicle stating that it is better to die by the sword for the homeland than to serve foreign nations.

Castle of the Dukes of Głogów

Highlight • Castle

The Castle of the Dukes of Głogów is the most important historical building in Głogów, dating back to the 13th century. Initially a stronghold of the Piast princes, later rebuilt into a baroque residence, today it houses the Archaeological and Historical Museum. The Gothic Hunger Tower – the oldest part of the castle – and the interesting post-war reconstruction of the building attract attention. There are other attractions around the castle, such as the Monument to the Children of Głogów and the pink Bridge of Tolerance. This is a must-see stop during a bicycle visit to the city – you can easily park your bike nearby and explore the interior on foot.
