Facts and practical information

Olimpijczyków Park in Katowice - an urban park located in the Katowice auxiliary unit of Szopienice-Burowiec, between Wypoczynkowa and 11 Listopada streets and Dworcowy Garden Square.

It is a landscaped area, covering an area of 2.81 hectares, which serves as a park of local importance. It is also a venue for district events. The well-arranged greenery is located in the northern part of the park. The area of the former football field of KS Roździeń, where every year Szopienice Days are celebrated, has been preserved in the park.

The name of the park was given by the resolution of the city council of Katowice no. XVIII/238/00 of 17 January 2000. In 2005 the park was reconstructed. At that time the mesh fences were renovated, the surface of the alleys was laid with concrete blocks, and the playground equipment was set up. Bike Trail No. 5 runs through the park.
