In Silesia there are many memorials dedicated to the victims of communist totalitarianism, such as the camp in Jaworzno or the monument commemorating the miners shot dead by the riot police in the Wujek coal mine. But we can also find a place where the contemporary everyday life of the years from 1945 to 1989 is illustrated in an absurd and comic way. The grim reality of the state created by Stalin and ruled by the first secretaries of the Communist Party sometimes had such a face. This place is the Museum of the People’s Republic of Poland in Ruda Śląska.

In the city of Zabrze a lot of interesting workers’ housing estates have survived to this day. They represent various forms of this type of housing in Silesia. One of the least known workers’ settlements is the so-called Colony B, which is located in the Zaborze district. It was established in the second half of the nineteenth century for workers of the expanding coal mine "Louise". Few-storey family houses called familoki can be found at Józefa Lompy Street.

"The shaft ""Mikołaj"" in Ruda Śląska was opened in 1912, and then it belonged to the mine ""Wolfgang"". In the postwar years, the shaft was part of the mine ""Walenty-Wawel"", which ceased to operate in the 90s the last century. Nowadays, the entire complex of the shaft structures belongs to the city. It is worthwhile to see an operating headframe e with a flywheel with a diameter of 6 m and a weight of 20 tons."

The „Ficinus” workers’ settlement in Wirek, a district of Ruda Śląska, is probably not so knowm and impressive as Giszowiec or Nikiszowiec in Katowice, but it has its own style and extraordinary features. The houses lining Pawła St were built in 1860s not of brick, but of sandstone extraxted from the Slesian quarries. The Miners working in the nearby  mine Gottessegen, which means God’s Blessing, lived in these houses.
