Mysia Tower in Kruswitz (Poland)

The model depicts the tower of Mysia, which has survived to this day in the Polish city of Kruswitz. It is part of the castle, which was built near Lake Goplo by order of Casimir the Great in 1350-1355. It housed the Kruswitz Elder Council, the city court, and the archives. The 32-meter-high Myssia Tower was used as a prison. The castle was burnt down by the Swedes during the Swedish invasion. Only part of the Mysia Tower and a few fragments of the walls remain. The name of the tower is derived from the legend of the King of Ash, Mysia, who was imprisoned in this tower and eaten by mouses. A completely straightforward model for beginner modelers with the option to choose between two wersions: the current look or the 14th century tower we want to make.
