Makoszowy (Zabrze-Makoszowy, German: Makoschau) is a district of Zabrze, Silesian Voivodeship, Poland, located in the southern part of the city.
Makoszowy is located on the Kłodnica river with its two tributaries, Bielczanka and Czarnawka, surrounded with forests and ponds. Anglers like to fish here or just come and have a rest. There is a coal mine. There are about 2,000 people. Easy communication with adjacent towns.
Makoszowy borders the districts of Kończyce and Guido (in the north), the cities of Gliwice (in the west) and Ruda Śląska (in the east), and the villages of Przyszowice and Paniówki (in the south).
Makoszwy was an independent settlement for a long time. In early decades of 19th century most of its inhabitants were farmers, but towards the end of the 19th century its character gradually changed into industrial, chiefly connected with coal mines, as Upper Silesian industrial region developed.
In 1906, a coal mine was established in the settlement. During the German occupation (World War II), the occupiers established and operated the E902 forced labour subcamp of the Stalag VIII-B/344 prisoner-of-war camp in the coal mine.[1]
In 1951 Makoszowy was included within the city limits of Zabrze, and since that time it has been district of Zabrze called Zabrze-Makoszowy.
