Nestled along the medieval trade route between Mikow and Owicim, Tychy has a captivating origin story. First documented in 1467, it began as a humble agricultural settlement. The growth of the Tychy Brewery, producing the town's renowned "Tyskie" beer, propelled the village forward. However, Tychy faced turbulent times during the First Silesian War when it was forcibly annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia. This resulted in a fierce battle for independence during the Silesian Uprisings. Tychy finally achieved its sovereignty and joined the Second Polish Republic in 1921. Today, Tychy boasts a thriving economic zone, flourishing factories like Fiat and Opel, and worldwide fame for its exceptional Tyskie beer.
