Upper Silesian Museum in Bytom, Regional history museum in Bytom, Poland
The Upper Silesian Museum spans two buildings, containing extensive collections of archaeological finds, natural specimens, historical documents, and regional art pieces.
Founded in 1910 by the Bytom Historical and Museum Society, the institution moved to its current main building in 1931, designed by architects A. Stütz and H. Hettler.
The museum maintains five research departments focusing on natural history, primitive history, ethnography, and art, reflecting Upper Silesian heritage through permanent exhibitions.
Located at Plac Jana III Sobieskiego 2 and Ulica Wojciecha Korfantego 34, the museum requires advance notice for photography and offers educational programs.
During the 1940s, the museum safeguarded collections from the Silesian Museum in Katowice, protecting regional artifacts during wartime conditions.
