Kliczków is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Osiecznica, within Bolesławiec County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland. Kliczków is the location of a notable castle dating from 1297.
==History== thumb|left|19th-century view of the castle The history of the village dates back to the 13th century, when it was located on the border of the regions Lower Silesia and Upper Lusatia. The castle, constructed in 1297, served as a stronghold for knights. The remains of the former medieval stronghold are still intact, most notably, a rectangular stone keep (tower) on the western side. The initial purpose of the castle was to defend the Duchy of Świdnica and Jawor, then the southwesternmost duchy of fragmented Piast-ruled Poland.
