Łabędy, Residential quarter in Gliwice, Poland.

Located in the valley of the Kłodnica River, Łabędy extends along both sides of the Gliwicki Canal with its notable lock system.

First documented in 1288, Łabędy developed from a small settlement with pottery craftsmen into an industrial center following the construction of Hermina steel mill in 1840s.

The district maintains strong industrial traditions through Huta Łabędy steel plant while supporting educational facilities including multiple primary schools and high schools.

The district connects to central Gliwice through regular public transportation services and houses numerous stores, restaurants, and accommodation facilities for visitors.

The Gliwicki Canal running through Łabędy features specialized engineering structures that enable water navigation between Gliwice Port and regional waterways.
