Description

A closed Exhibition Hall, commonly called the Flowers Hall. It is located on the premises of the Silesia Park in Chorzów.

The place is characterized by a non-standard shape. It was built in 1968 as a result of collaboration of an architect Jerzy Gottfried and a constructor Włodzimierz Feiferek. It is one of the most interesting spots in the Silesia Park.

When the Hall was opened, it hosted fairs, exhibitions, meetings and many other events.
