About Katowice
Katowice is the capital of the region of Upper Silesia in southern Poland. It is the heart of the Upper Silesian industrial area and has a population of about 320,000.
The region of Upper Silesia was ruled by the Polish Piast Dynasty until it came under the Habsburgs of Austria. The city of Katowice itself was only founded in the 19th century while the area was under Prussian rule. It was inhabited by Silesians, Germans, Poles and Jews. After the Silesian Uprisings in 1918-1921 it became part of the Polish Republic. Its rapid economic development was due to the large coal deposits, and coal mining and steel industry marked its prosperity during the period of the Industrial Revolution. The heavy industry was the cause of much pollution all the way through the communist regime, but the recent shift towards small business and the measures for environmental protection have started to change the aspect of the city.
