Summary/Abstract: The impressive size stronghold in Konopnica has raised the interest of many researchers since 1930. The object was repeatedly investigated by subsequent researchers such as: Jan Fitzke, Konrad Jażdżewski, Janina Kamińska and the others. Excavations on the earthwork castle and on the place so-called “mieścisko”, the results of which were presented in this article, conducted J. Kamińska in 1964. During the excavation they were made 2 excavations on the stronghold - No. 1 located on the plateau and No. 2 in the moat I. The next 2 excavation were located on the place so-called “mieścisko”. The chronology of artifacts was established by researcher for the time between the 13th - the first half of the 15th and the 16th - 17th century. After many years we can confirm the accuracy of her findings, both in terms of observation of layers in excavations and dating of archeological materials.
