The project will raise the profile of the Srebrna Góra Stronghold as an attraction of the whole region.

The renovation and opening to the public of the deteriorated parts of the building as well as better exposition of the monument’s values will fulfil two synergic and complementary objectives:
1. it will enable visitors to access and display an outstanding “unique in Poland, and also on a European scale” cultural heritage and increase the number of visitors to cultural assets in the region, and
2. through the development of the monument, will enable its preservation for future generations.
