The Miners' Roundabout in Mysłowice-Wesoła is a symbolic commemoration of the hard work of miners, located on Piastów Śląskich Street. It was opened alongside a major street reconstruction, and features a large mining hoist as a decorative element. It is one of two roundabouts commemorating miners in Mysłowice; another, commemorating miners from the Mysłowice mine, is located at the intersection of Katowicka and Bytomska Streets.

The roundabout was created as part of the reconstruction of Piastów Śląskich Street, which also included renovations to bus bays, intersections, pedestrian crossings, storm sewers, and the water main.

Its purpose is to honor the work of generations of miners associated with the Mysłowice and Mysłowice-Wesoła Coal Mines, as well as to emphasize the mining character of the city.

The impressive wheel of a mining hoist is located on the roundabout. The second roundabout commemorating miners, located at Katowicka and Bytomska Streets, has a mining cart in the center and is named after the miners of the Mysłowice Coal Mine.

A ROUNDABOUT WITH A MINING ACCENT. In Mysłowice, as a result of the modernization of Piastów Śląskich Street, a new roundabout was created at the end of 2015 – the Wesoła Górników Kopalni Roundabout. This means that the holding mine of two names now also has two roundabouts. One features a mining cart in front of the former Mysłowice mine (intersection of Katowicka and Bytomska Streets). The second was built right here, near the Wesoła mine. I would like the roundabout itself to be perceived as a kind of wheel of history, but more on that later. The large, red, rope-like shaft wheel placed in its center may be reminiscent of the wheel of fortune, which stopped at the end of the 18th century right here, at the name of Johan Christian Ruberg. more...
