Why is Barbórka celebrated in Tarnowskie Góry not only on 4 December, but also in the middle of summer? What happened on 16 July 1784, and how did it shape the history of the town and the entire region? What artefacts relating to these events can be seen at the Museum in Tarnowskie Góry?

We’ll answer these and many other questions during a special St Barbara’s Day guided tour of the Museum in Tarnowskie Góry. This is a perfect opportunity to learn about the fascinating history of mining in Tarnowskie Góry, discover extraordinary museum exhibits and gain a fresh perspective on local history.

The event is part of ‘Barbórka in the Middle of Summer’, organised by Tarnowskie Góry Town Council from 10–12 July 2026.
