Old Mokotów
Old Mokotów

Old Mokotow (Polish: Stary Mokotów [ˈsta.rɘ̟ mɔˈkɔ.tuf]) is a neighbourhood, and a City Information System area, in Warsaw, Poland, located within the northwestern portion of the Mokotów district. The area is part of its western half, known as the Upper Mokotów. The neighbourhood is a residential area, predominantly consisting of mid- and high-rise apartment buildings. Old Mokotów also includes the campuses of the SGH Warsaw School of Economics and the Warsaw University of Technology. Old Mokotów has several historic buildings, including the Szuster Palace, a Gothic Revival palace residence from 1774, and the Mokotów Tollhouses, two neoclassical tollhouse pavilions from 1818. It also features the Church of the Ascension of the Lord from 1904, which belongs to the Lutheran denomination. The neighbourhood also has the Racławicka and Pole Mokotowskie stations of the M1 line of the Warsaw Metro underground rapid transit system. The oldest known records of the village of Mokotów, originally known as Mokotowo, date to 1367, when it was a small farming community. In the 14th century, Mokotów received the Kulm law privileges. It was raided and destroyed between 1655 and 1657, by the Swedish forces during the Second Northern War. In the 18th century Mokotów came to prosperity with the development of numerous manor houses, villas, and palaces for wealthy landowners and townspeople. It was demolished and plundered by the soldiers of the Imperial Russian Army during the Kościuszko Uprising in 1794. It began to rebuilt in the 1810s. In the 19th century, Mokotów became a popular holiday village, with numerous guesthouses, health and recreation facilities, restaurants and inns developing in the area. On 13 January 1867, the village became the seat of government of the rural municipality of Mokotów. The expansion of the village was halted in the 1880s, with the construction of sets of fortifications to its south in 1883 and 1892. In 1892, the Warsaw Mokotów narrow-gauge station was opened next to the Union of Lublin Square, where it operated until 1935. At the turn of the 20th century, the land of Mokotów was partitioned and sold for housing development. In the 1910s, following the decommissioning of the nearby fortifications, the area began rapidly developing with the construction of tenement houses, especially alongside Independence Avenue and Puławska Street. The village of Mokotów, together with the rest of its municipality, was incorporated into Warsaw on 8 April 1916. In 1910, the Mokotów Aerodrome was established to the north of the village, featuring dirt runways. It became the city's first aerodrome, and operated until 1947. During the Warsaw Uprising in the Second War War, the German officers conducted series of executions on lical population, and displaced thousands of residents from the area. A large portion of the building in the neighbourhood were destroyed during the fighting and in its aftermath, with the neighbourhood redeveloping after the war. Between 1947 and 1952, a housing estate with modernist apartment buildings was developed in its north. Another housing estate, known as Osiedle Batorego, was developed in the southeast in the 1960s. In 1995, the M1 line of the Warsaw Metro was opened crossing the neighbourhood, with the Racławicka and Pole Mokotowskie stations.
