Must admit I think more cities than castles for Poland but it makes a lot of sense now, since they were some of the big boys in European empires past weren't they. Thanks for sharing! Will add these to my long long list for Poland 👍🏾
Thanks for the suggestions! I've been to Zamek Niedzica and Wawel and highly recommend them both. I would like to visit some of these other castles too the next time I am in Poland.
I've visited just a few of them! The closest to my heart are Wawel, Krasiczyn, and Lancut Castle (These are the castles very close to the place I used to live ). Great job you've done!!! Thank you!!!!
Most castles and other historical places such old buildings, churches,were destroyed during WW2 as Nazi Germany and Communist Russia made a battlefield from our beautiful country. P.S. there was no country who would stand against Germany and Russia alone on this time as even Britain and France combined couldn't stop Germany of taking the Europe. Poland was alone and Polish army was new born as there were before partitions of Poland by Prussia,Austria and Russia and our country was robbed by 3 countries and destroyed even before WW2. Please read the link below: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partitions_of_Poland Then in 1919-1920 was a Polish-Bolshevic(Russian) war where Russia wanted to conquer whole Europe ,but our Polish new born army after 123 years partitions of Poland and WW1 Polish New Army was much weaker and less advanced than Russia but still kicked their ass and kept West safe from Russians. Britain was surprised that without their support or France it was a Polish Victory. If Poland would be so advanced like the West and rich and if partitions by 3 countries wouldn't happen then Poland could keep old borders and would probably win with Nazi Germany alone as Polish men are best soldiers ,but without modern equipment no one can do much to win a war. I came back to you mate after long time but will watch your previous videos for sure as you do a great job! Take care and stay safe man!
6:05 I don't know where did you take those dates from... 1333-1795? Those are (most propably) dates of Senate residing in Krakow. 1037-1596 are dates of kings and princes of Poland residing in Krakow.
Actually it's a reasonable mistake. Casimir the Great started ruling in 1333, his father united Poland after feudal fragmentation when there were several dukedomes rather than one state. Casimir also was the one who started to refer to Poland as a Polish Crown, so it was kinda begining of new look on authorities and organisation of country. Nethertheless many king before him were residing in Krakow. Sejm and Senat were residing in several places, but mosty in Warsaw, that was one of main reasons why king and his court moved to Warsaw, but even tho the king, sejm, senat and most important institutions were risiding in Warsaw Krakow was still considered a capitol city, kings were still crowned, get merried and get burried in Krakow. 1795 is a year of final partition when Poland as a state ceased to exist, so there was no more capitol city xD So officially Krakow was a capitol until 1795, but King weren't residing there since 1596 (in fact since 1609, because moving a whole court was a long process ;p)
Oh Moszna, it's not a castle but a palace, a palace in Moszna, like a few others in the film, but there's a nice pun with this one, when someone stubbornly claims that it's Moszna Castle (Zamek w Mosznie), the answer is "Probably Moszna in the Castle" (Chyba moszna w zamku) Moszna in English is literally "scrotum", and the word castle (zamek) also means zipper... Also, nice channel :)
The name of Moszna therefore has a deeper meaning that must be sought in its etymology. In Old Slavic, this is what a bag was called as part of an outfit or part of the knightly gear like saddlebag, saddle-bag.
I miss Krzyżtopór Castle. It was the largest castle and palace complex until the completion of Versailles. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krzy%C5%BCtop%C3%B3r ua-cam.com/video/tVCtjLcIC-E/v-deo.html
you fail to mention that most of these castles were inherited by Pl after the boundary change of 1945 when they got about a quarter of germany, german for over 700 years, so there is nothing polish about them other than today they are sitting on the territory of PL but the rightful owners were never given back their castles after most fled 1945 before the russians arrived. do your due diligence, and tell your listeners, these are german owned and built and were only "inherited " by PL after the war. The Poles changed the castle names and polonized them. These names are NOT the historical names one would have found about 1900. please do not practice forced polonization but the historical truth. thank you. Dr. R.

5:17 this alleged Inca princess was to be named Umina and died at the end of the 18th century when she fled Peru after the fall of the Tupac Amaru II uprising
I don't know where you found that Wawel was a residence of Polish kings in years 1332-1795. It actually has been from 1320 till 1609. Nice video but check the facts.

It's annoying to overuse dron's pictures instead of that from the ground. For example not looking inside of Wawel Castle means You'll never know how beautiful this castle really is!

Je l'ai visité presque tous chaqun a son charme...mais pour moi le meilleur C est le château de Kzias in celesia
Wawel and Kraków look so Polish and it's cool. And btw, Książ Castle is very much the Witcher's territory.
Thankyou Poland for helping the Ukrainian 🇺🇦 refugees. (Australia 🦘🇦🇺)

Widokowo najpiękniejszy w Polsce jest zamek Chojnik. Jego głównie mi tu zabrakło.
wow
Your Polish pronunciation must be praised indeed. Well done, Sir.
Great
Similar to another one posted recently, but quite good.
Yes I had to just make 2 - just for certain people

Nah, most castles were destroyed during the Deluge. And France did support Poland in the Polish-Soviet War.
@@ChillDudelDReally? Smoking cigarettes with Germans on the Franco-German border?
@@wladyslawbukowski I said the POLISH-SOVIET WAR.
@@ChillDudelD I know what you said. However, I am referring to how France supported Poland in that war.
@@wladyslawbukowski Where do you think Haller's Army and financing its equipment came form?

And soon, the Stobnica castle will be also one of the most beautiful. ;)
You have to check Stobnica Castle. Castle from XXI century. It is quite controversial but absolutely marvelous.

Padłem "means sth else in polish" BTW great movie! ;)
Il have to investigate that one

do you need permit to fly drones above these castles?
Where is the first castle, I can't find it.
Malbork Castle: 54°02′23″N 19°01′40″E

Makes sense the nobles and magnets elected the king so power was not concentrated.
where are the castles on the trail of the eagles' nests? cross thrust? they are much prettier than those in the movie

5:17 this alleged Inca princess was to be named Umina and died at the end of the 18th century when she fled Peru after the fall of the Tupac Amaru II uprising
Ile tych zamkow niepolskich zbudowano przez polskich niewolnikow ?
You’ve made a big mistake. It’s not Gulochow Castle it’s GOLUCHOW.
Moszna is more of a palace than a castle
You should cover Castles and Palaces in Austria.
Moszna is not a castle. Its a palace.it lacks walls, turrets etc.
I don't know where you found that Wawel was a residence of Polish kings in years 1332-1795. It actually has been from 1320 till 1609. Nice video but check the facts.
In this castle is a dungeon ideal place for putin
They look more like palaces, not fit for medieval war!
"Moszna" hahaha...
I didn't even know that there is place named "Moszna" :D
The name of Moszna therefore has a deeper
meaning that must be sought in its
etymology. In Old Slavic, this is what a bag
was called as part of an outfit or part of the
knightly gear like saddlebag, saddle-bag.
It is called Marienburg. and its not polish
Now it is ;)
These castles may be in Poland, but they are not Polish!
You know that 5 of these castles are "German" Castles build by Germans
Yes, German in quotation marks;)
Germans who invide Poland nobody wanted you there
Teutonic Knights. Germany didn't exist back then...
It's annoying to overuse dron's pictures instead of that from the ground. For example not looking inside of Wawel Castle means You'll never know how beautiful this castle
really is!
