Zabrze is a city between Gliwice and Bytom located in Upper Silesia. It is inhabited by nearly 157,000 people. Its name signifies a settlement located behind debry, or hills covered with forest thicket. Although Zabrze as a city has existed since 1922, it has a much longer history. The first mention of its current district, then the settlement of Biskupice, dates back to 1243, and Zabrze is mentioned in documents from the early 14th century. With the advent of the Industrial Revolution, Zabrze developed as an industrial center - coal mines and a steel mill were established.
It may seem that there is nothing interesting to see there, but the city is full of interesting attractions not found anywhere else in Poland. In Zabrze you can see many brilliantly revitalized remnants of its industrial and mining past, such as the Królowa Luiza Adit, once the pride of mining engineers, today one of the biggest attractions of the Silesian province offering interesting attractions both underground and on the surface. The Guido Mine is also a must-see, allowing visitors to descend more than 300 meters below the surface and traverse nearly 5 kilometers of underground trails there, familiarizing themselves with the hard work of miners. Another similar attraction is Maciej Shaft, a complex of buildings of the former Concordia Mine.
Zabrze is located by the A4 and A1 highways. National and provincial roads run through it. There is also a railroad station and the Zabrze PKS bus station, which is located on Goethe Street in the city center. Our buses depart from PKS Zabrze station but also from the bus stop located at Plac Warszawski.
.Fulda is located in the heart of Germany, in the state of Hesse on the river of the same name. It is a picturesque city with many baroque buildings, gardens and green spaces. Is it worth going here and what can you see?
.Fulda, despite its overlooking Baroque setting, is actually a city with more than 1000 years of history. A Benedictine monastery was founded here as early as 744, and thanks to the learned monk Count Moor, the city became a major scientific center of the Frankish Empire. Fulda's Baroque appearance is mainly due to Abbot Adalbert von Schleifras, who was responsible for the construction of the city palace and the cathedral. Both buildings are on the first list of objects to see in the city. In addition to them, St. Michael's Church - one of the oldest in Germany, as evidenced by its well-preserved crypt dating back to the 9th century - is worth a visit. In the city center, noteworthy is the half-timbered old town hall with its arcades, as well as many cobblestone townhouses and buildings. Fulda has several parks, most notable of which is the Baroque garden by the city palace with its pond, numerous fountains and sculptures.
.Fulda is an important road junction and is located on the A7 Ulm-Hanower and A66 Frankfurt-Fulda highways. About 100 kilometers from Fulda lies Frankfurt am Main. From there you can reach Fulda by direct train in about an hour and a half. The main train station in the city is located in the center, right next to the City Palace. The Fulda bus station is also located there and our long-distance coaches stop there. We will be a good choice if you are interested in buses to Germany. Fulda, on the other hand, is a city that will appeal to lovers of Baroque architecture, but also those looking for an atmospheric small city for a weekend city break.
