The Upper Silesian Breweries in Zabrze boast of more than a 150- year-old tradition and continue to brew beer nowadays. The first brewery in today's Zabrze was launched by Loebel Haendler in 1860. It was located at the road called The Way of the Heir to the Throne - later, the main street of the city - Wolności Street, which means Liberty Street. Beer from the HAENDLER brewery enjoyed great reputation - some brands were also popular outside Silesia. Today, the brewery is modern, however, a few pre-war buildings and traditional equipment for brewing beer have been preserved.
