Silesian Mythology refers to the collection of myths, legends, and folklore originating from the Silesia region in Central Europe, primarily in present-day Poland, Czech Republic, and Germany. This mythology is influenced by various cultures, including Slavic, Germanic, and Celtic traditions, resulting in a rich tapestry of stories that often feature supernatural beings, nature spirits, and local heroes. Key figures in Silesian Mythology include Rusalka, a water spirit associated with lakes and rivers, and Baba Yaga, a witch known for her ambiguous nature. These tales often reflect the region's history, customs, and the relationship between people and the natural world.
