The castle's layout is close to that of a square, with a tower measuring 24 metres in height.

[1][2] The Castle of the Pomeranian Dukes was built during the second half of the fourteenth century, in 1352.

It was constructed during the reign of Bogusław V and Elżbieta, the daughter of Casimir III the Great.

The following expansion of the castle was done under the reign of Duke Bogusław X, when a new wing was built.

The castle lost many of its defences, and a chapel was built inside the Duke Hall.
