About this route

Route overview

Tychy has two identities — historic brewing (the Princely Brewery Tychy was founded in 1629 by the Pszczyna Prince Promnitz, one of the oldest breweries in Poland with an unbroken 400-year tradition) and post-war modernism (Tychy as a model socialist town of the 1950s-1970s, planned by Hanna and Kazimierz Wejchert). TYSKIE BROWARIUM is the Museum of the Princely Breweries of Tychy — an interactive exhibition in 19th-20th century brewery buildings, with a production-line tour, the history of brewing from the Middle Ages to today and a tasting at the inn. The Tyskie brand is now Poland's most popular beer (sold in 30+ countries, owned by the Asahi group). Tychy Arena is a modern 15 000-seat stadium, home to Gornik Tychy (ice hockey, one of the most famous hockey clubs in Poland). Estate E in Tychy is a listed modernist housing complex from 1956-1970 — one of the best examples of socialist urban planning in Poland, fascinating for architects and photographers. The City Park with Lake Paprocany offers a public lido, beach and water sports. 25 km via the DK1 road to Tychy, 30 - 45 min off-peak. The service runs 24/7. A standard plan: 10:00 hotel pickup in Katowice, 11:00 Tyskie Browarium (2 h 30 min with tasting), 13:30 lunch at Stara Pyrlikowka by the brewery (Silesian cuisine), 15:00 architectural walk on Estate E (1 h 30 min), 16:30 Paprocany Park or Tychy Arena, 18:00 return to Katowice. From EUR 320 in a Mercedes E-Class for 1-3 passengers, EUR 420 in a V-Class for 4-6.

Katowice to Gliwice (Radio Tower, outbreak of WWII)

Gliwice holds particular significance in 20th-century history — on 31 August 1939 the GLEIWITZ INCIDENT took place here, one element of Operation Himmler, the pretext for the German attack on Poland on 1 September 1939 and the outbreak of World War II. German SS men dressed in Polish uniforms attacked the German Gliwice Radio Station (Gleiwitzer Sender) and broadcast a fake anti-German proclamation in Polish. THE GLIWICE RADIO TOWER from 1935 is the only preserved wooden radio tower in Europe — 111 m tall in larch wood (taller than the Eiffel Tower in wood), with a Radio Tower Museum exhibiting the history of the incident and 1930s German radio broadcasting.

Katowice to Bytom and Zabrze (Guido Mine, postindustrial)

Katowice to Istebna and Jaworzynka (PL/CZ/SK Tripoint)

Istebna and Jaworzynka are twin villages of the Silesian Beskids, the heart of Silesian Highlander culture — the oldest ethnographic group of the region, with its own dialect, costume, music and wooden architecture. Jaworzynka is home to the Poland-Czech Republic-Slovakia TRIPOINT — a geodetic point unique worldwide, where three countries converge, marked by national obelisks from 1992 (after the breakup of Czechoslovakia). In Istebna we visit listed wooden Highlander cottages (the oldest from the 18th century), Pawel Sikora's house (sculptor and storyteller), the wooden Good Shepherd church from the 16th century and regional cottages exhibited in an open-air museum.
