The best road cycling routes around Tychy City

Most Bronisław - that's its name. When driving towards Oświęcim from Wola or Jedlina, it's the only option for cyclists. The new Oświęcim bypass is not adapted for cyclists and pedestrians.

The origins of the "Piast" Coal Mine in Lędziny, where the Social Services Center was opened, date back to 1843. It was then named "Henry's Joy" in honor of the last Anhalt Duke of Pszczyna. In the 19th century, it was called "Matylda," in the interwar period "Henryk," and then "Szyby Piast." After World War II, the name was finally changed to "Piast." After 150 years of operation, the mine was closed due to depletion of its resources. The hoist tower was demolished in 1999. On November 2, 2009, by decision of the Voivode, the district received this 4-hectare site. In 2015, a decision was made to revitalize the complex for social purposes. In 2018-19, a project entitled "Reconstruction of the Hoisting Machine Building for the Social Services Center of the Bieruń-Lędziny District" was implemented.

This mining monument, a shaft wheel, is located in Lędziny. This area is the former site of the KWK Piast mine. The building visible in the background is the former hoisting machine building, which has been renovated and now houses the District Social Services Center in Lędziny. This location commemorates the region's rich mining traditions, and the wheel itself is a tangible symbol of the mining industry in Upper Silesia. Many other towns in the region, such as Radzionków (Mini Open-Air Mining Museum) and Zabrze (Guido Mine, Queen Luiza Adit), also preserve the memory of mining through open-air museums and monuments.

A local paved road runs along the Vistula River along Wałowa Street. A good alternative to exiting the heavily trafficked sections of Skromna and Wolska roads.

Perfect for relaxing. There's a gas station near the shelter where you can grab a snack or enjoy a good cup of coffee.

The combination of English Neo-Gothic architecture with Swiss-style architecture produced a remarkable effect. The palace, built of brick and wood, has three stories. The octagonal tower is topped with a pointed dome. The building's form is embellished by numerous bay windows, attics, and turrets. The interior is highly ornate, with intricately carved paneling, stained-glass windows, and paintings making an impression. A spiral staircase in the vestibule attracts attention, while a tiled stove in the Fireplace Room displays hunting trophies. Hunting trophies hang on the walls. In front of the palace stands a historic sculpture of St. Hubert, the patron saint of hunters. After being converted into a hotel, the hunting lodge has regained its former glory. Noma Hotel Residence is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful properties of its kind in Poland. This reputation is all the more justified by the hotel's charming location – it is surrounded by a park and the waters of Lake Paprocańskie.

Promnice takes its name from the Promnitz family – Silesian nobility who ruled the Pszczyna estate from the mid-16th to the mid-18th century. After their death, the estate passed into the hands of the Anhalt family. It was a member of this family who built the first hunting lodge in the Pszczyna Forest. However, the time of greatest prosperity came with the takeover of Pszczyna by the Hochberg family, aristocrats considered part of the elite of the German Reich.

One of my favorite towns in Silesia, an extremely picturesque palace with a park and a beautiful market square.
