Bederowiec, Historical settlement in Tysiąclecie district, Katowice, Poland
Bederowiec spans across both Katowice and Chorzów municipalities, featuring residential areas near the entrance of the Silesian Zoological Garden and Chorzowska Street.
The settlement emerged in the 1820s when parish priest Józef Beder established it on Chorzów-Dąb estates, leading to its incorporation into Katowice in 1924.
A commemorative stone cross stands in the garden of the Church of Our Lady of Piekarska, marking the former location of the original Bedersdorf village.
The location provides direct access to major urban facilities through Chorzowska Street, connecting residents to both Katowice and Chorzów city centers.
During the 1929-1933 economic crisis, the area became known for its makeshift settlements, which locals nicknamed Morocco and Egypt.
