Hillfort in Dolnoslaskie
Second hilfort located in Osobowicki Forest on suburbs of Wrocław is far smaller then Szwedzki Szaniec and has different atmosphere. It was build between 900 and 700 year BC and destroyed after that date by attack of tribes from the north. It seems possible that it was kind of satellite hillfort to Szwedzki Szaniec.
The shape of the hilfort is still perfectly distinguishable, however in it's southern part a church was build in 19th century. The site is easily accesable - you need to follow Lipska Street, the hillfort and church are perfectly visible from it.
