Passing by the train station in Chełm Śląski, it's worth taking a look at this extremely interesting water tower. The facility is located on the grounds of the former Woodworks of the Coal Industry. This historic place is still called "Szwelownia" by the locals today, because years ago, wooden railway sleepers (so-called "szwele") for Silesian mines were mass-produced here. Although the area of the former works and coal depot is currently unused, the characteristic silhouette of the water tower is a great landmark for cyclists and industrial architecture enthusiasts. The structure is best viewed from behind the fence on the access road side, making it an ideal drive-by stop on the route.
