Krzyżtopór Castle is an impressive ruin of a 17th-century defensive palace located in Ujazd in the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship. Built in the years 1621-1644 by Krzysztof Ossoliński, then voivode of Sandomierz, Krzyżtopór was one of the largest palace residences in Europe before the foundation of Versailles. In 2018, the building was granted the status of a historical monument.
