Tourist

We invite to the Śląskie Voivodeship, one of the most interesting and the most attractive tourist regions of Poland. We invite to the land of unspoiled nature, rich cultural life and varied landscape.

“The heart of the nation beats” here in Częstochowa in the monastery of the Order of Saint Paul the First Hermit on Jasna Góra. The Shrine with the Miraculous Painting of Black Madonna is visited by nearly five million pilgrims from around the world every year.

The mountain ranges of the Silesian and Żywiec Beskids, as well as the areas of the Cracow-Częstochowa Upland are the perfect for active tourism, both in winter and summer.

The Castle of the Pszczyna Dukes with A charming palace and park complex in Pszczyna, and the medieval ruins of defensive castles along the “Trail of the Eagle’s Nests” are the most famous monuments out of the long list of the castles and palaces, which used to be strongholds or representative residences.

Unique monuments of old engineering are also located in Silesia. Underground rafting along the galleries of the Historic Silver Mine and the Black Trout Adit in Tarnowskie Góry, “Królowa Luiza” Heritage Park in Zabrze and the Museum of Brewery in Tychy are the worth-seeing places here.

The ?Katowice” International Airport in Pyrzowice provides direct access to several European, Asian and African cities. Thanks to the best developed network of motorways and express roads in Poland, the region is easily accessible by car. The InterCity and EuroCity rail lines assure a fast access to the capital of the region Katowice, and other cities of Poland and Europe.
