Bieruń, Urban municipality in Silesian Voivodeship, Poland
Bieruń stretches along the Gostynia River within the Silesian Highlands, approximately 25 kilometers south of Katowice, encompassing both residential and commercial zones.
The settlement received its town privileges in 1387 from John II, the Přemyslid duke of Racibórz, during the period of Bohemian administration.
The town maintains strong connections with neighboring European municipalities through partnerships with Gundelfingen, Meung-sur-Loire, Moravský Beroun, and Ostroh.
The municipality serves as a transportation hub for commuters working in Katowice, with established public services including schools, healthcare facilities, and recreational areas.
A devastating fire in 1845 led King Frederick William IV of Prussia to contribute 9000 talers for the reconstruction of the town.
