Hillfort in Malopolskie

One of the largest and best studied hillforts of southern Poland is located on the top of a hill over the village of Naszacowice. It covers the area of 15ha and has been built in four phases - the earliest one dates back to 8th century AD (tribal period in Poland), the final one to the late 10th century AD.

The main hillfort is a circular structure with a well-preserved rampart and ditch - originally the earthwork was up to 10.5m high (measuring from the bottom of the ditch). Adjacent to the fort is a large enclosed settlement, particularly extensive at the south.
