Ozimek, Industrial town in Opole Voivodeship, Poland.

Ozimek is an industrial city along the Mała Panew River in Opole Voivodeship, surrounded by forests and agricultural land. The center extends along the waterway and combines historic structures with modern facilities.

The first steelworks in Silesia was established here in 1753, marking the beginning of industrial development under Prussian rule. This founding transformed the valley into a significant production center for the region.

The Museum of Metallurgy of the Mała Panew Valley displays the region's industrial craftsmanship through original tools and production methods. Visitors can see how metalworking shaped the daily life and development of the community.

The town center offers basic services and is connected by rail to larger cities in the region. Traveling by train to Opole takes about 30 minutes and provides access to further destinations nearby.

The Ozimek Chain Bridge, built in 1827, stands as one of Europe's oldest surviving wrought iron suspension bridges. Walking across this bridge reveals the craftsmanship and engineering skill of metalworkers from that era.
