The Orłowa (German: Adlerberg ) is a mountain in Poland . It is located in the municipalities of Ustroń and Brenna and divides the river valleys of the upper Vistula and Brennica . With a height of 813 m, it is one of the lower mountains in the Równica ridge of the Silesian Beskids . The mountain is a popular tourist destination with many views of the neighboring mountains and the lowlands. During the Second World War, there was a partisan bunker in the woods, which the Wehrmacht located and attacked in the winter of 1944/1945. However, the partisans managed to break through the siege ring and escape into the woods. Remnants of the bunker are still preserved.
