Haperowiec Skyscraper, Modernist skyscraper in Katowice, Poland

The Haperowiec is a skyscraper in Katowice featuring clean lines and modern architectural details. The structure rises prominently above the city with a sleek facade and straightforward geometric design.

Architect Jurand Jarecki designed the building in the 1970s as part of an urban development plan. This project helped transform Katowice from an industrial center into a modern city.

The building shows how Polish architecture changed, moving from traditional designs to modern commercial spaces in Upper Silesia.

The building sits in central Katowice and is easy to reach by public transportation. Several bus and tram stops are located near the main entrance for convenient access.

The building uses special engineering techniques to stay stable on ground from former mining areas. These solutions allow it to remain secure despite the area's history of coal extraction.
