The text presents the history of the ruins of the castle in Chupkowo, which was once the habitat of the Siemaszko family; the castle itself was built thanks to Bogdan Siemaszko. The history related to the Tartar wars is recalled, as well as the later fate of the estate, which passed through the hands of the Daniłłowicz, Koniecpolski, Potocki and Walewski families. At the time of writing, Chupków belonged to Count Bolesław Poniński (Source: 'Tygodnik Illustrowany', Warsaw 1869, Series 2, T:3, pp. 104-105, after: Digital Library of the University of Łódź).
