Dąbrowa Górnicza, Industrial center in Silesian Voivodeship, Poland

This urban settlement sits at the confluence of the Czarna Przemsza and Biała Przemsza rivers, surrounded by forests covering over 4,100 hectares.

The settlement expanded significantly after coal mining operations began in 1796, leading to its recognition as an official town in 1916.

The Palace of Culture Zagłębia and City Museum Sztygarka present exhibitions about local mining traditions and regional artistic developments.

The city connects to major transportation routes through expressway S1 and national road 94, providing direct access to Katowice International Airport.

The local coal seam reaches a thickness of 24 meters and holds national geological reserve status due to its scientific importance.
