Just 3 minutes ago, a 2.8-magnitude earthquake struck near Polkowice, Polkowice County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland. The tremor was recorded late at night on Thursday, September 4th, 2025, at 11:30 pm local time, at a very shallow depth of 5. km below the surface.
The event was filed by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the first seismological agency to report it.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Polkowice (pop. 21,600) located 3 km from the epicenter.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Glogow (pop. 67,300) located 15 km from the epicenter, and Lubin (pop. 77,500) 17 km away. In Legnica (pop. 106,000, 36 km away), Nowa Sol (pop. 40,400, 39 km away), Boleslawiec (pop. 40,700, 46 km away), Zlotoryja (pop. 15,600, 46 km away), Leszno (pop. 63,600, 49 km away), and Zielona Gora (pop. 118,400, 60 km away), the quake was probably not felt.
