The earliest finds from Góra Zamkowa (Castle Hill) in Cieszyn are dated for the Neolithic period. Materials of Lusatian culture (Early Iron Age) and Puchov culture (La Tene period) were discovered beneath the earthworks of the early medieval (9th-10th century) hillfort. In 1374 prince Przemysław I Noszak started construction of a stone castle here, remains of which are visible till nowadays.
