Reachable in a few minutes walk from the city center. Beautiful everything, from the walls, the towers, the entrance, the vast square in front of the entrance, the large courtyard. Former residence of the Polish kings, recently restored, the interior is rich in furniture and works of art. The audio guide in Italian takes you step by step and is exhaustive.
