Pomnik Powstańców Śląskich
The little park just south of Jerzego Ziętka Roundabout. Much of Silesia remained part of Germany even after World War I and Polish independence, but there were uprisings by ethnic Poles in 1919, 1920 and 1921 - the three wings symbolize these, and the battle sites are etched on the sides. But thus the map remained until World War II, when the German and Polish parts suffered equal horrors, and afterwards the entire region joined Poland.
Contemporary art.
Muzeum Śląskie
Remarkable building of 2015 in a former coalmine, with galleries underground. Excellent display of life and history in Silesia down the ages, plus religious artworks. The former museum within the old Grand Hotel closed in 2018.
