CITY MAYOR The current mayor of Rybnik is Adam Fudali. Mayor of Rybnik is the executive body, elected for four-year term by direct elections.
Nature In contrast to the central part of the Upper Silesian Industry Area a short distance to the north, Rybnik enjoys the reputation of a "green" city having a relatively clean environment. The Beskidy Mountains, a popular recreational area, also for skiing, are within a 1–2 hours drive.
Rybnik’s „Sea” To the north-east of the built-up area, there is a reservoir (Zalew Rybnicki) on the river Ruda, which serves as a cooling water source for the power station. Surrounded by forests, it offers swimming, fishing, sailing and surfing opportunities, and due to the power station's waste heat it is warm enough all year to be a habitat for grass carps
SHOPPING The city has two shopping and entertainment galleries Rybnik Plaza and Focus Mall.
EDUCATION Schools:38 public kindergartens25 public elementary schools14 public junior high schools12 public high schools and profiled4 public school and pre-school groupsand other schools
