Groszowice

Groszowice is a residential district in Opole situated along the Oder River, with a mix of housing, local shops, and schools spread throughout. The area features both tree-lined streets and open spaces where residents go about their daily lives.

The area has roots stretching back over two thousand years, with evidence of early settlements in the region. Archaeological discoveries from past excavations reveal the long human presence here.

The cement factory, operating from 1872 to 1999, influenced the development of the local community and established industrial heritage in the region.

The district is well served by public transit, with buses connecting to central Opole and regional train stations nearby. Visitors can easily explore on foot, using the Oder River as a natural landmark for orientation.

A lock system on the Oder maintains water levels to allow boats to pass through this river section. This engineering solution connects the area to wider waterway networks used for transport and recreation.
