Silesia is a region incredibly rich in landmarks; here were born, lived and worked many famous people of science and art; here had their residences the princes of the Piast dynasty; here took place historical events important to Poland and Europe, whose memorials we can see to this day. The Silesian Voivodeship’s landscape is diverse in many respects: geographically (here coincide terrains belonging to The Kraków-Czestochowa Upland, Silesian Upland and Beskid Mountains), economically (next to Upper Silesian Industrial Region we’ll find typically agricultural areas), culturally, ethnically and religiously.
