About the city

Katowice is the capital city of the Silesian Voivodeship, a bustling hub that stands out for its significant contribution to Poland's cultural and economic landscape. The city has transformed over the years from a coal-mining powerhouse into a modern metropolis that's rich in cultural events and architectural innovation. Katowice is home to the UNESCO City of Music title, celebrating its vibrant music scene spanning classical to contemporary sounds.

Top attractions

A visit to Katowice wouldn't be complete without exploring its top attractions, such as the Spodek arena, an architectural marvel known for its unique UFO-like design and a venue for major concerts and sports events. The Silesian Museum offers visitors a profound journey through the cultural heritage of the region, housed in a beautifully redeveloped coal mine. Nearby, the Nikiszowiec district offers a nostalgic look at the early 20th-century working-class life with its red-brick architecture. Additionally, the Botanical Garden of Silesia is perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat amidst nature's beauty.

Best time to visit
