Czerwionka-Leszczyny

Czerwionka-Leszczyny is an industrial municipality in Silesian Voivodeship composed of two towns and two villages that retain their own distinct character. The area contains residential quarters, industrial zones, and green spaces distributed across several neighborhoods.

Archaeological remains from ancient times, including a Bronze Age bracelet discovered in Czerwionka, show that this area was settled far back in history. These early traces reveal that the region was inhabited well before its industrial growth.

The Municipal Cultural Center hosts regular gatherings that bring the community together through local events and activities. The space reflects how residents today connect with their shared past while maintaining present-day traditions.

The town functions as a transit point with good connections to nearby cities like Rybnik, Gliwice, and Katowice. Public transport links the different districts together and makes travel to surrounding areas straightforward.

A coal mine operated for over a century, creating large housing estates for miners and shaping the town's economy and society. When it closed at the start of the 2000s, the area had to find new directions for growth and employment.
