The Goczałkowice dam was built between 1950 and 1955 on the Vistula River, and its creation led to the formation of the Goczałkowice Lake – one of the largest artificial reservoirs in southern Poland. The main task of the dam is the water supply for Upper Silesia and flood protection. The earth-fill dam itself is about 2.98 km long and 14 m high.

A few dozen meters further, you can sit on benches on the crown of the dam, with a view of Lake Goczałkowickie, but the advantage of this place is that you rest in the shade, which is lacking on the dam.

The castle's Mirror Hall features two enormous mirrors (each 14m²) that were manufactured in Paris and transported to Pszczyna, along with five crystal chandeliers that can be lowered to floor level using pulley systems from the attic - a mechanism that still functions today from the Hochberg era.
