On the Trail of Katowice Murals

Large-format paintings, often extremely colorful, thanks to which art moves from the gallery to the street, allow you to observe the rhythm of the city, present its history and development over the years.


On the streets of Katowice we can see works inspired by the work of Waldemar Świerzy, an outstanding Polish poster artist (mural depicting John Baildon, author: Camej, corner of Gliwicka and Bocheńskiego streets), illustrations by Jean Giraud (mural painted on the occasion of the Intel Extreme Masters games, author: Mona Tusz, ul. 1 Maja 53) or works by the local Janowska Group (Kutz na kucu, author: Camej, ul. Wypoczynkowa 3).


We invite you to take a walk around Katowice along the trail of street art.
