History.History.It started to grow in the 19th century,
after the discovery of coal near the city. The Huta Bankowa still works, and it is an ongoing concern. It was built in Dabrowa Gornicza in 1834. The 1970s
saw the construction of the Huta Katowice which is nowadays the biggest steel producing plant in
Poland. Now it is divided into many small parts working on their own. In the 1990s all coal mines there were
closed, because of lack of coal. But the oldest part of the town, Reden, still
exists.
