Porąbka, Residential district in eastern Sosnowiec, Poland.
Porąbka spans across both sides of the Bobrek River, forming a substantial residential area within the eastern section of Sosnowiec's municipal boundaries.
The settlement received its first written mention in 1326 and was later purchased by Bishop Jan Radlica in 1390, housing 577 residents in 100 homes by 1827.
The Church of Our Lady of Częstochowa emerged from a transformed miners' assembly building in 1924, representing the district's industrial and religious heritage.
The district connects to central Sosnowiec through established public transportation routes, including bus services introduced in 1939 and tram lines added in 1959.
Between 1905 and 1913, the district developed a workers' settlement called Kolonia Pekin to house employees of local coal mining operations.
