Siedlisko Castle (Polish: Zamek w Siedlisku) is a castle in the village of Carolath, today Siedlisko, in Lower Silesia. It was built between 1597 and 1618 on the site of a 14th-century hunting lodge and was rebuilt and stylistically altered several times in the following centuries. After the end of the Second World War the castle was set on fire by soldiers of the Red Army and burnt out.
