Siągarnia, Forest settlement in Murcki district, Katowice, Poland
Siągarnia sits among dense woodland with several historical buildings along Lędzińska Street, including a traditional forest lodge numbered from three to nine.
The settlement dates back to early Christianization efforts in the 9th and 10th centuries, when Saint Clement, a disciple of Cyril and Methodius, traveled through this region.
Local narratives preserve the tale of the Black Well, known in German as Schwarzer Brunnen, which according to folklore served as residence for a mysterious witch.
The settlement remains open throughout the year without entrance fees, and visitors can reach it through the main roads connecting to central Katowice.
The forest lodge at Siągarnia contains multiple preserved buildings that reflect the traditional architecture of Upper Silesian forestry settlements.
