    Old zinc factory. Wonderful place to earn about how industrial revolution changed zinc production in Poland Europe and uk. Enterance fee is 17 zloty and is worth every penny if you have patience to read every board in this place. It is mentioned both in English and polish language. They also have some old compressers and bikes which is well maintained and looking like it is in working condition.

    If you want to penetrate into the century of steam, this place is perfect for you. But first, a short excursion into the era of powerful machines not only from Harley-Davidson. The tour guide is amazing, he explained everything, interested the children. He even moved several machines. Thank you so much, it was amazing.

    In general it's ok but there are some cons when it comes to bigger events: parking is quite small and toilets are overloaded. Also isolation (temporary) between main event area and side conference room is not good enough. I would recommend this place only for small events not for big ones.

    Idk, seems pricey a bit, but on the other hand, you could buy you some time in an absolute silence without any people in such an unusual place for just 20+ zł at a weekday.

    I guess it's a great museum.. if only they would answer the phone, intercom or doorbell. Flags are out, website says its open, but no-one opens the gate. Tried multiple times, to no avail.

    Beautiful place, small exhibition of old motorcycles in the one part and the old mill in the other part. The place. Is cleaned and "tidied up", but the machines are not restored. This creates a somewhat eerie atmosphere and makes it an empty space that is filled with the ghost of the bygone times.

    Wonderful place - must visit. Well preserved and maintained. I`ve been there few years ago for a company party.

    Interesting. But it's only for specific audience. And it's super cold.

👍👍 It's a place to visit and check the mining part of town, made mostly of red bricks. Really stunning to see it in the 21st century and a must for every urbanist. Could be explored in half an hour, several buses are coming from Katowice or taxi is an option too.
