The rooms of the castle have a number of rooms, including prison with a torture chamber, a court room, an arsenal, a bedroom, a picture gallery. The castle served the owners of Książ to receive distinguished guests and organize parties and games.

One of the most interesting elements of the castle was the tournament square with lodges and galleries, where the first tournament took place on May 20, 1799. Around 1,000 people were watching then. In the mid-nineteenth century, the castle transformed into a tourist facility. In May 1945, when the soldiers of the Soviet Army took over in Książ, the castle burned down completely. To this day, small fragments of the main building, tower and chapel, two Renaissance portals and ogival windows have survived.
