Moschen // Moszna. The name of the village probably comes from the surname Moschin. According to legend, Moszna belonged to the Knights Templar in the Middle Ages. In 1679, Moszna was owned by the von Skall family. In 1723, after the death of the owner Ursula Maria von Skall, Moszna passed into the hands of her cousin, the court marshal of Frederick the Great - Georg Wilhelm von Reisewitz. The castle - the central part of the current castle - dates from this period. In 1771, the von Reisewitz family lost Moszna and the property was purchased at auction by Heinrich Leopold von Seherr-Thoss. In 1853, Karl Gotthard Seherr-Thoss sold Moszna to Heinrich von Erdmannsdorf, who sold it in 1866 to Hubert von Tiele-Winckler from Miechowice. His son Franz Hubert was the originator and builder of the castle, which was built after the partial burnt down of the Baroque castle in 1896. Franz Hubert's grandfather, Franz Winckler, worked as a miner in the mine in Miechowice. After the death of his wife and mine owner, he married his rich widow Maria Aresin. In 1840, the Prussian king granted him the title of nobility. The heiress of the fortune was his daughter Valeska, who married Hubert von Tiele in 1854, who bought Moszna in 1866. After the marriage, they used a combined surname - Tiele-Winckler. Hubert died in 1893, and his estate passed to his eldest son Franz-Hubert according to the majority principle. In 1895, he was ennobled by the title of count awarded to him by Emperor Wilhelm. A year later, after a fire, he rebuilt and expanded his residence. In 1904, and later in 1911 and 1912, the count was visited by the ruler of Germany for hunting, and the west wing was built for him in 1911–1913. Franz Hubert's son Claus-Peter spent part of his ancestors' fortune in the interwar period. When he died childless, he adopted his cousin, whose son was to inherit the estate and the title of count. His family lived in Moszna Castle until the end of the war and fled to Germany to escape the approaching Red Army. After the war, the fate of the castle was different - from 1972 it has been operating as a hospital for the treatment of neuroses. Moszna - According to Franz Hubert's imagination, the castle has 365 rooms and 99 towers, for which it is famous. The unique architecture of the castle attracts crowds of tourists every year.

Between 1967 and 1976 the building was renovated and partly restored to its original Renaissance form. Since 1976 there has been a branch of the Opole Library in the building, which contains the manuscript and map collection. The castle building has been under monument protection since 1950.
