In the past, Paniowy was a village, mentioned already in 1282. It is now part of the town of Mikołów. Amid the local landscapes combining arable land and industrial centers dotted with shafts and chimneys, it is worth looking inside the eighteenth-century wooden church of Saints Peter and Paul. This sanctuary, with a fine silhouette of three Baroque domes, is on the Wooden Architecture Trail of the Silesia province.
