Porąbka

The village of Porąbka lies near an artificial lake on the Soła River, surrounded by green hills in southern Poland.

The settlement was first documented in 1445 when it formed part of the Duchy of Oświęcim during the regional territorial divisions.

The local church dedicated to Mary serves as a central gathering point for religious ceremonies and community events throughout the year.

Located 12 kilometers east of Bielsko-Biała and 53 kilometers south of Katowice, Porąbka functions as the administrative center of Gmina Porąbka.

The village maintains direct oversight of a substantial dam system on the Soła River, which creates a local reservoir for water management.
