A neighbourhood square in Szopienice-Burowiec with a playground, a skate point and a rain garden, on the site of a former workers' colony.
Hilary Krzysztofiak Square lies in the Szopienice-Burowiec district of Katowice, at the junction of gen. Józefa Hallera and Obrońców Westerplatte streets. Its patron is the artist, graphic designer and stage designer born in Szopienice.
This area was formerly occupied by the "Paweł" colony (German: Pauls), built in the 1870s and demolished in 1977-1978. The square was named by the Katowice City Council on 26 January 2009.
The area is overgrown with trees and shrubs, and the paths are paved with setts. There is a playground for children aged 3 to 15 with small houses, swings, a roundabout and a mini basketball court. The square also has a skate point and a rain garden.
