Worth visiting
I think that this neighborhood is probably the only place worth visiting in Katowice( a city that I've found pretty ugly). Red bricks everywhere, kick back and relax when you are here, take time to walk aimlessly through the neighborhood. The only downside was the bus, on the way back I had to wait almost 2 hours before it arrived. Crazy!

Valentine's Day Trip
The best place to visit on any occasion! Great atmosphere, impressive collection and lots of interesting information. Mister Leszek takes real care to entertain his guests. He's really passionate about music and made my boyfriend want to start to play again.

Wonderful examples of apartments from the 1900s
We wanted to take a day train trip from Krakow and, having looked at the InterCity timetable, decided on Katowice (about an hour away). So glad we did, what a lovely city centre and wonderful Galeria for shopping. However, the highlight for us was the Museum of the History of Katowice. The middle floor has fascinating examples of middle class and upper class apartments from the 1900s. We were given information sheets in English, as a tour guide wasn’t available. The top floor has the history of Katowice itself with interesting exhibits and information provided in both Polish and English. About a mile from the train station, very quiet when we visited. You are requested to leave backpacks in the cloakroom. Would definitely recommend if you are visiting this lovely city.
