Tychy – why is it worth living here?

Here is the next chapter of our investment guide to Silesia. This time we will tell you what may charm you about Tychy and why flats for sale or to rent in this very place may interest you. Join us for a tour of another charming Silesian town.

Breweries

The town of Tychy has been famous for many years for the breweries located within its borders. Most people of course associate it with Tyskie Browary Książęce and the brewery that belongs to them – Browar Książęcy, the largest in Poland. It was founded as early as the beginning of the 17th century, and you can learn about its rich history in the Museum of Tyskie Browary Książęce. However, we cannot overlook the fact that there is also a second brewery in the town – Obywatelski, which is also a historic building. At various times in its history it was both a competitor of the Książęcy brewery and a part of it. Today you can admire it, for example, in the restaurants and bars located on its grounds. For brewing enthusiasts, Tychy is a place that is unique on the scale of the whole country. Given the history of the breweries and their great tourist value, this may well be one of the factors influencing the decision to invest in property in Tychy.

Ice hockey

Besides the beer industry, the town also holds a special place on the ice hockey map of Poland thanks to the GKS Tychy club. It is a team that has done great service not only to ice hockey but to sport in our country in general, and it is currently the Polish champion. Our outstanding hockey player, Mariusz Czerkawski, who spent many years playing in the American NHL, is also associated with it. If you want to experience sporting excitement at its best and be part of top-level competition in our country, Tychy is the best place for it.

Osiedle A

Osiedle A, also known as Osiedle Anna, is one of the few places in Poland where you can so strongly feel the atmosphere of the bygone communist era (PRL). The estate, built in the 1950s, is considered a model example of socialist realist architecture and one of the few fully completed projects of the communist authorities. One of its landmarks is, for example, the sculpture of a female worker. The place gains additional atmosphere from the fact that the band Dżem, together with the legendary Ryszard Riedel, took its first steps in the community centre located here. In yet another respect, Tychy turns out to be a treasure trove of historical curiosities showing the charm of bygone times.

Economy

A key fact for those looking for a flat in Tychy may be the significant development of the region and the growing economy of Tychy. For years the economic strength of the town has been built on the brewery, which is now part of Kompania Piwowarska. General Motors and Fiat are also major employers. The low unemployment rate, which has stayed at 2.5% in recent years, is further confirmation of good conditions for investing and living in the town.

Tychy is another Silesian town worth considering when planning your future, a change of place of residence or a business investment. It offers both good conditions for development for newcomers and many secrets from the past waiting to be discovered.
