Abstrakt

The article presents the results of archaeological and historical research on a small knight's residence from the village of Lipinki located in the eastern part of the former Duchy of Głogów. The excavations were prompted by the maintenance of the site by its new owner. The manor house had not been excavated before, and its chronology had been determined on the basis of formal criteria, classifying it as a late medieval motte-type settlement. The remains of this defensive-residential complex are situated in the south-western part of the village, about 200 metres west of its built-up area. The structure was built on a low natural hill, originally surrounded on three sides by marshy meadows and situated between two small watercourses, which were converted into drainage ditches in the period between the two World Wars. The main element of the complex is a mound, almost circular in shape, with a diameter of approximately 45 metres at the base, 32 metres at the top and a height of 2.5 metres. The mound is surrounded by a wet ditch 6 to 8 metres wide. Despite the limited scale of the excavations, cultural layers and features associated with two main phases of settlement were uncovered. The first phase was associated with a defensive residence built on the natural rise, surrounded by wetlands and a moat. Wood samples taken from the wooden reinforcements at the base of the mound and along the edge of the moat indicated that the manor was built in the 1430s. During the second phase of the occupation, which dates from the second half of the 16th century to the 18th century, a new manor house was built on the site of the earlier residence. At this time, a new mound of sand and clay was constructed and two brick buildings were built on its plateau: a main dwelling in the central part and an outbuilding near the north-eastern edge. The excavations have yielded numerous small finds related to the daily life of the manor’s inhabitants, including ceramic vessels, fragments of wooden bowls,, weaponry elements, and household equipment, such as stove tiles, nails, and building fittings.
