Raciborz

Among the cities of Silesian Voivodeship, Racibórz stands out for its long-established role as an Oder town close to Poland’s southern border. The river has shaped Racibórz’s broad lowland setting and historic centre, while the Racibórz Dolny dry reservoir upstream is a major element of flood protection on the upper Oder. In the Ostróg district, Racibórz Castle recalls the town’s time as a seat of the Piast dukes; its Chapel of St Thomas Becket is a notable surviving part of the complex. The market square, rebuilt after wartime destruction, remains the civic core. View additional webcams nearby to better understand how Racibórz and the upper Oder valley relate to their surroundings.
