Mokotów
Mokotów () is a district of Warsaw, the capital city of Poland. It is densely populated, and hosts many companies and foreign embassies. Only a small part of the district is lightly industrialised (''Służewiec Przemysłowy''), while the majority is full of parks and green areas ( Mokotów Field). Although the area has been populated at least since the early Middle Ages, Mokotów was not incorporated into Warsaw until 1916. The origins of the area's name are unclear, first appearing as the village of Mokotowo in documents from the year 1367. It is hypothesised to have come from the name of a German owner of the village, who called himself Mokoto or Mokot, although no exact reference to such an individual has been found in historical records. In the 18th century, Moktów developed as a place where mansions, villas and palaces of the magnates and wealthy bourgeoisie were built. However, most of the area was urbanised and redeveloped throughout the 1930s in the style of modernism. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
