The Ziębice Gate in Grodków is a medieval town gate, built most probably in the first half of the 14th century during the reign of Bolko I, the Duke of Świdnica. Together with the town walls, the Lewin Gate, and the Prison Tower, the facility formed part of the medieval fortifications of the town. The tower was built on a rectangular plan with a pointed-arch passage in the lower story and an expanded attic at the finial. On each side of the structure, there are two arrow slits, and its finial is made up of Renaissance arcades. Practical information: Sightseeing by prior arrangement.
