Park Pszczelnik is a historic 20-hectare recreational area located in Siemianowice Śląskie, notable for hosting the first international speedway track in Poland. The park serves as a hub for local sports infrastructure, featuring a modern stadium, tennis courts, and fitness zones managed by the Municipal Sports and Recreation Center (MOSiR).
