a castle with its roots in deep Middle Ages, the present shape is the result of a 19th century reconstruction. During the visit in the castle you will see beautiful interiors with original furniture from (mostly) 18th and 19th centuries, wonderful floors made of roots of trees, some paintings, musical instruments, souvenirs brought from all-over-the world by one of the Castle’s owners and – last but not least – the portrait of Mrs. Teofila – better known as Kórnik White Lady – a good ghost of the castle appearing every midnight in the park nearby. On the second floor there’s a unique armory collection and some book from extra precious Kórnik Library (which is a part of the Polish Academy of Sciences) : the manuscript of the first edition of Nicolas Copernicus’s Works, the first guide-book about Poznań, the first printed Bible in Polish (2nd half of 16th cent) and many other books or manuscripts.
