Czeladź is an old city in southern Poland that was first granted city rights in the 13th century. It has a population of around 30,000 people and was historically known for its coal mining industry, with two large mines operating in the city. Today, Czeladź has redeveloped some of its former mining infrastructure and is working to transition its economy, with attractions like a contemporary art gallery housed in the renovated Saturn Mine.

3. In 1858, the first hard coal deposits
were discovered here. For years, two
hard coal mines operated in the city:
"Saturn" and "Czeladź", which
became significant industrial plants.
Workers' colonies were established
around them, with characteristic
multi-family buildings for workers, so-
called ''familoki'' (family houses) in
the Piaski district. Unlike other
working-class housing estates, they
are not made of red brick, but of
limestone.

4. Currently, in the renovated part of
the "Saturn" mine, the "Elektrownia"
Gallery of Contemporary Art has been
established. The interior resembles
the times of steam engines and the
first electrical devices. This is
one of the most characteristic
objects on the map of the Industrial
Monuments Route of the Silesian
Voivodeship. The gallery is open to

13. The widow's name was Katarzyna Włodyczkowa and she lived in Podwale with her five
children. She was supposedly a wealthy woman, but quite quarrelsome and always in
conflict with her neighbors. Although there are those who claim that these stories about her
are not entirely true. Maybe it was the case that a widowed, single mother tried in this way -
thanks to the strength of her character - to fight with the whole world for her and her
children's good.
For some reason, however, Włodyczkowa strongly conflicted with the then landmayor of
Czeladź, Bartłomiej Sojecki, and the mayor of the city, Wojciech Żądliński. She conflicted
with them to such an extent that they accused her of casting spells, believing in superstitions
and witchcraft - although Katarzyna was supposedly a devout Catholic and regularly
attended church.
The finale was that Katarzyna was sued. And then, without actually providing any evidence,
they were sentenced to death and beheaded. The woman's sons appealed against the
unjust sentence to the bishop's court and lodged a complaint against the land mayor and the
mayor. The bishop's commissioner examining the case, after hearing the witnesses, did not
find any evidence of witchcraft by Katarzyna Włodyczkowa. He even called her "innocently
blamed" and convicted for acts she did not commit. And those who sentenced her to death,
in the judgment of November 10, 1741, he awarded severe punishment.

schools, a clerk's club, a Jordanian garden, shops and a church. The settlement consisted of
several smaller colonies, limited, among others, by ul.: Mickiewicza, Kościuszki, Nowopogońska
