About
Jaworzno is a city in Silesian Voivodeship, east of Katowice. Coal mining, power generation and industry have played a large part in its development.
Notes
Arnshalde is attested as a retrieval alias but its formal implementation is disputed; local and German administrative histories describe an unimplemented proposal. Neu-Dachs names the concentration-camp subcamp at Jaworzno, not the city, and is excluded from city-name alternatives.
