Earthquakes in Poland are a rare phenomenon.
Most often they are caused by rock bursts in coal or copper mines.
Natural ones appear in the Carpathian Mountains, Sudetes, or in the Trans-European Suture Zone.
Sometimes events from other countries are felt in Poland.
Between 2015 and 2019, in Polish mines, 23 strong earthquakes occurred, killing 24 miners and damaging buildings on the surface.
