How to travel from ZABRZE to HELSINGBORG?

ZABRZE

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.

HELSINGBORG

Helsingborg is a Swedish port city located in the Skåne region, on the Strait of Sund. It is only 4 kilometers from the Danish city of Helsingor, on the other side of the isthmus. Officially, Helsingborg was founded in 1081, making it one of the oldest cities in Sweden, although you should know that it originally belonged to Denmark. When visiting Helsingborg, you can immerse yourself a bit in the local history, but also have a nice time on the seashore or in one of several beautifully maintained parks.

Perhaps the city's most important monument is the Kärnan Tower, which is a remnant of a medieval fortress that once existed. The city's oldest church, the Marienkirche, with its historic altar and baptismal font, is worth a visit, as well as a stroll through the city's main square, Stortorget. A major attraction in Helsingborg is Tropikariet, a park with tropical animals and rainforest flora, and Fredriksdal Gardens showcasing mainly local flora surrounded by interesting thematic exhibitions, including historical and ethnographic ones. The Dunker Culture House art center is also worth a visit. In addition to the interesting exhibitions, the building itself is already noteworthy - it was designed by Kim Utzon, son of Jorn Utzon, the architect responsible for the design of the Sydney Opera House.
