Why you should go to Katowice
Situated in Upper Silesia, south-western Poland, Katowice is a town known for its industrial roots and a history that dates right back to the 19th century. Whilst often overlooked on typical travel itineraries, this European gem is an alternative destination to the bustling tourism in the likes of neighbouring Krakow.
The city is packed with industrial architecture and rich culture, so a simple walk around the city offers you the chance to immerse yourself in the vast history and vibrancy of the region. Amongst the historic buildings of its industrial past, it can be surprising to discover that Katowice is home to Poland’s largest cathedral. It is also fast becoming one of the most culturally diverse and pioneering cities in the country.
If you are hoping to explore the local entertainment and leisure facilities, you can spend your time browsing the various cultural centres including the Silesian Philharmonic, Wyspianski Silesian Theatre and the History of Katowice Museum. To add a little more adventure to your trip, include a visit to the Silesian Zoological Garden, or even attend a concert in the futuristic Spodek Arena.
Regardless of how you choose to spend your time, Katowice is the destination for you!
When you should go to Katowice
The best time to visit Katowice depends on what you are looking for from your trip. If you are after plenty of sunshine and heat, summer is the time to go - when temperatures are consistently in the mid 20s and above. For cooler conditions and quieter streets, autumn can be ideal.
Where to stay in Katowice
Śródmieście, located in downtown Katowice, is perfect for those who want to stay in close proximity to the city centre. People who love to explore the city by foot will appreciate this convenient location - which also offers multiple choices for public transportation. There is nowhere you cannot get to from Śródmieście. With easy access to all the city's amenities, such as the Supersam and Galeria Katowicka shopping centres, Śródmieście is also great for visitors who want to enjoy Katowice's nightlife.
For those who want to be closer to greenery and nature, Osiedle Paderewskiego-Muchowiec is the ideal place. Located near to the Dolina Trzech Stawów (Valley of the Three Ponds), this is a superb spot for lovers of the outdoors who still want the city centre to be easily accessible.
Admirers of nature might also want to stay in Brynów, due to its close proximity to the biggest city park in Katowice.
