The Castle in Janowiec by the Vistula is one of the residences of the Vistula Museum in Kazimierz Dolny, being one of six branches. This bastioned castle, built in the early 16th century and expanded until the 18th century, was formerly the residence of the magnate families of Firlej, Tarło, and Lubomirski. During the construction of the castle, renowned architects and sculptors were involved, including Santi Gucci Fiorentino, Giovanni Battista Falconi, and Tylman van Gameren.
The Vistula Museum has undertaken efforts to secure the ruins of the castle and carried out partial reconstruction, during which the so-called North House was brought back to life – a type of palace added in the first half of the 17th century to the previously existing defensive wall. Currently, on the ground floor, three rooms have gathered exhibits dedicated to the history of the castle, its former owners, and the conservation processes of the site. In the cellars, guests can admire a fascinating exhibition of ceramics titled "Dutch Faience. Decorative Motifs of the 17th – 20th Century from the Collection of Jan Jaworski." An additional attraction for tourists are the multi-level cloisters, from which charming views of the castle courtyard and the picturesque Vistula valley unfold.https://mnkd.pl/muzeum-nadwislanskie-oddzial-zamek-w-janowcu/
