Bachelor's Palace (also Kawaler's House, German: Kavaliershaus) - a palace built in the years 1903–1906 in the French neo-baroque style in Świerklaniec, entered into the register of immovable monuments of the Silesian Voivodeship.

The present town hall in Tarnowskie Góry, which can be admired in the southern frontage of the Market Square, was built at the end of the 19th century, when the city was dynamically developing. The plot was purchased in 1894, but construction began two years later. The design was prepared by an architect from Berlin, Hermann Guth. He proposed a magnificent building in the neo-renaissance-neo-gothic style, interestingly very similar to another, realized at the same time, own project - the town hall in Jawor in Lower Silesia. The building was erected in the years 1896-98. Bricks were used for its construction, and for the facade decoration - clinker bricks, Silesian granite and sandstone. The building has three floors, but a tall tower dominates the body. Numerous turrets, projections topped with gables, balconies and bay windows look impressive. In the front elevation, we can see a stone figure of the goshawk, which replaced the old sculpture of Prince George Hohenzollern. This building is commonly considered the most beautiful (next to Bielsko) town hall in the entire voivodeship. Originally, there were shops on the ground floor of the town hall, the office on the first floor, and the mayor's apartment on the second floor. To this day, the magnificent boarding room of the city council makes a great impression. https://www.slaskie.travel/poi/15865/ratusz-w-tarnowskich-gorach https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratusz_w_Tarnowskich_G%C3%B3rach https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqxI0pogOkg

Świerklaniec is a small town situated in the district of Tarnowskie Góry, in the valley of the Brynica River. The history of the village and the construction of the unique palace and park complex are closely related to the Donnersmarck family. In the 1870s, Count Guido von Donnersmarck built a residence for his wife, which was called "Little Versailles" or "Silesian Versailles". Its designer was Hector Lefuel, the court architect of Napoleon III. The "Little Versailles" delighted with its splendor and technical innovations. Thinking about the guests visiting the Donnersmarck family, in the years 1903-1906, near the "Little Versailles", another building, enchanting with its taste and modernity, was created, called the Cavalier's Palace. The Cavalier's Palace was equipped with, among others in Istrian marble floors, American "Royal" bathtubs made of one piece of earthenware, paintings by masters, etc. The main reason for its creation was the frequent visits of the Emperor of Germany, Wilhelm II, who came here to hunt. The Knight's Palace in the French neo-baroque style was designed by Ernest von Ihne, architect of Emperor Wilhelm II. The Kawalera Palace was built on a plan similar to a square. The brick facade of the building is made in two colors: red walls and white corners. In the central part of the building there is a representative, oval hall with a marble-mirror staircase. On the front of the palace there is an inscription "Memento vivere" (Remember about life), which was supposed to encourage visiting guests and bachelors (especially) to have fun. https://www.slaskie.travel/poi/3416/palac-kawalera-w-swierklancu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEWxcy1kYek

The adit has been open to visitors since 1957. It is one of the attractions of the Industrial Monuments Route of the Silesian Voivodeship. The Black Trout Adit and the underground of the Historic Silver Mine were recognized as a historical monument by the ordinance of the President of the Republic of Poland of April 14, 2004. The tourist route runs between the shafts "Ewa" (adit shaft no. 13 of the Deep Adit "Fryderyk"; depth 20 m) and "Sylwester" (adit shaft no. 17; depth 30 m). During the trip, which takes place by boat, you can observe the small stalactites that are being formed today and the original parts of the adit sidewalk carved in the dolomite rock. Visiting the facility begins with going down the winding stairs to the underground marina located in the shafts "Ewa" or "Sylwester" (swing movement). Several dozen meters underground, tourists get into a boat and, under the light of lamps, swim a distance of 600 m - until 2018 the longest underground boat flow in Poland. The guide, pushing the boats away from the side walls, tells about the history of mining in Tarnowskie Góry. Due to the variable terrain profile, the adit is situated at a depth of 20–30 m. The width of the adit ranges from 1.2 to 2.5 m, its height is up to 4 m, and the water depth is from 0.7 to 1 m. https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sztolnia_Czarnego_Pstr%C4%85ga https://sztolniapstraga.pl/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRyhgbFOXb0
