Spider Exhibition in Katowice

The Spider Exhibition is the only such exotic place in Silesia. We are a group of enthusiasts who have been focusing on running educational exhibitions throughout Europe for over 20 years. Our goal and mission is to present the world of arachnids in an accessible way to instill love and respect for these beautiful animals. The exhibition features over 50 specimens from all continents, educational boards and films, as well as unique art installations. During the tour, experienced carers will interest you with curiosities and answer all your questions. Every full hour, experienced Teaching Supervisors will lead a short lesson about spiders, during which you will hold a spider in your hand with the help of a professional breeder! #poland #katowice

Katowice is a good place to travel

Nikiszowiec - mining town from the past

Nikiszowiec was one of the most amazing places I have ever visited. Located on the outskirts of Katowice, this old mining town has the spirit of the past epoch. Old fashioned houses made from brown bricks and hand painted windows are something unique. Apart from houses and mines, the district has other numerous sites, like a park, church, square and a couple of restaurants. It's the most wonderful place in Katowice you can spend a weekend at.
