The map
Dąbrowa Górnicza lies in the Zagłębie Dąbrowskie area of southern Poland, at the eastern end of the Silesian metropolitan area. Unlike a compact old town, its map is spread out, with districts separated by forest, rail yards, industrial land and water. The Czarna Przemsza river crosses the area, and the city borders its neighbours without a single obvious centre of gravity.
Coal mining and heavy industry shaped the city. Huta Katowice, a major steelworks, is located within the city limits, and its vast rectilinear site, with rail sidings running through it, shows up clearly from above. Wide roads and tram lines connect the districts to Sosnowiec, Będzin and Katowice.
The most striking features on a Dąbrowa Górnicza map poster are the Pogoria lakes. These reservoirs formed in flooded sand-extraction pits, and their smooth, rounded shapes lie just outside the central districts. Together with the Kuźnica Warężyńska reservoir, they turn a former industrial landscape into a map where water and open space have a large role.

The Huta Katowice complex covers a wide, regular area of halls and rail tracks that reads like a separate city on the map.
The neighbourhoods sit as separate clusters linked by major roads and tram lines, a structure typical of towns that grew around mines.
