The castle ruins sit on a steep limestone bluff just above the town. They are a short, steep climb from the market square — fifteen minutes on the marked path. What remains is fragmentary: outer walls, the base of the keep, the cellars, and the lower section of the tower (the so-called Baszta) which is older than the castle itself and predates it as a watchtower.
Climb to the top of the Baszta for the best view in Kazimierz: the merchants' houses below, the bend in the Vistula, and on a clear day the Janowiec Castle on the opposite bank. A small fee is charged in season, and the site is open most daylight hours.
