About the tour

Industrial Silesia — good to know

Katowice and its surroundings are the heart of the former heavy industry. Nikiszowiec, a historic red-brick workers' estate, is as striking as a film set and one of the symbols of Silesia.

On the industrial heritage route you'll also see former mine shafts, brick workers' houses and sites on the Industrial Monuments Route. On request, a drive to the Guido Coal Mine in Zabrze with a descent underground or to the Silesian Museum.

This is a tour for those curious about the real Silesia, its history and atmosphere. The driver plans the route around your interests and pace.
