Discover Luboń

Dear guests, welcome to Luboń, the heart of the region's industry. We have a number of monuments and places worth visiting. The industrial heritage and unique brick architecture attract more and more tourists every year, not only from Poland but from all over Europe. 

It's hard to believe that all this arose in the early 20th century on a simple field. Within a few years, Luboń became a center of the food industry. And one that was ahead of its time. Don't believe it? Stop for a moment, scan the plaque under the sower's monument, and he himself will tell you all about it...

Oh yes, a lot was happening back then. And did you know that the surrounding buildings were designed by Hans Poelzig? The same one whose structures still stand today in Dresden, Wrocław, and Frankfurt. He will talk about his work and how he agreed to design here.

Where capital is at stake, risk is also high. In 1972, a major disaster took place here, claiming many lives. You can also hear about those dark moments that unfolded in the dextrin department building by scanning the code on a special plaque.

An extraordinary man, Edmund Bojanowski, will also tell you his story. Just sit next to him on a special bench. What's so special about it? See for yourself; it's a shame to spoil the surprise.
Intrigued? If so, you'll also love other attractions in our city. Look for the "Discover History" signs, scan QR codes with your phone, and explore Luboń.

How it working

To listen to the history of monuments as part of the "Discover History" project, you need to follow a few simple steps. Below, we present a short, step-by-step "user manual" to provide a relatively simple way to access the mini-auditions.

STEP 1

You need a smartphone with a camera. The camera lens should be pointed at the information plaque located next to the monument. Below is a view of the plaque itself and its example location next to the Karol Musioł monument in Opole.

STEP 2

After pointing your smartphone's camera at the QR code located on the right side of the plaque, the app's welcome screen will appear, followed by a screen with the name, photo of the monument, and the "START" button.

STEP 3

The "START" button starts the audio recording process.
Your smartphone will prompt you with the next steps after you listen to the story or pause it. Please keep an eye on your smartphone screen!

STEP 4

Other available options: brief information about the monument, author of the text and recording, list of other monuments in the city included in the "Discover History" project, downloadable map of monuments, video, and social media links

Project partners

Implementing the "Discover history" project in each city requires the involvement of many people: programmers, graphic designers, writers, actors, sound engineers, and coordinators. It is thanks to them that this project came to life.

Our ambition is to continually expand its reach. Therefore, we thank our current partners and invite additional cities, institutions, companies, and individuals to collaborate!
