City Hall in Pszczyna

The medieval settlement of Pszczyna was founded on the merchants’ route leading from Krakow to Silesia and further on through Cieszyn to South Europe.

Today, Pszczyna also benefits from its advantageous location. The town lies at the junction of Katowice-Bielsko-Cieszyn route (national road no. 1) and Oświęcim-Rybnik, between the Upper Silesian Industrial Region and the Beskidy Mountains. One-hour drive is enough to reach one of the two airports (Pyrzowice or Balice), and half-an-hour drive – to reach Czech Cieszyn.

Together with 12 surrounding villages, Pszczyna makes a gmina district with 174 km² and 50 thousand inhabitants (including the town of Pszczyna with 27 thousand).
