Odolany[a] is a neighbourhood, and an area of the City Information System, in the city of Warsaw, Poland, located within the district of Wola.[1]
Name
[edit]The name Odolany comes from a Polish male first name, Odolan. The form Odolany indicates that it was a family name and means that the area belonged to the descendants of Odolan.[2]
A neighbourhood of Odolany in the city of Szczecin was named after the neighbourhood in Warsaw. It was named as such after 1946, when, in the aftermath of World War II, it was incorporated from Germany into Poland.[3][4]
Characteristics
[edit]Education and science
[edit]
Odolany hosts the Institute of Computer Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences, which conducts research on computer science.[5] There are also two private universities in Odolany: the Higher School of Rehabilitation, and the Edward Wiszniewski Higher School of Economics.[6]
Public transit and transportation infrastructure
[edit]
The Warszawa Wola railway station, on railway line no. 20, is located near Prymasa Tysiąclecia Avenue. The station is operated by Polish State Railways.[7][8]
The central and southern portion of Odolany is covered by railway infrastructure, including the railway tracks, as well as technical, administrative and employee housing buildings of Polish State Railways.[9] Also in Odolany is the Warszawa Szczęśliwice motive power depot.[10]
History
[edit]The village was settled on the road leading from Warsaw to Błonie (currently Połczyńska Street). In 1431, the village became the property of the Collegiate Church of St. John the Baptist.[11][12] In 1528, the village was noted to have an area of 5 lans, which equals around 85 hectares (0.85 km² or 0.328 sq mi). In 1789, in Odolany were located 18 houses.[11]
The Yellow Tavern (Polish: Żółta Karczma) was located in Odolany between what is now Ordona Street and Prądzyńskiego Street. It was a popular meeting place for nobility to engage in political discussions, debates, and vote buying, during the royal elections in Wola. During the elections, which were held between 1572 and 1791, the members of nobility would vote to chose the leader of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. The building was destroyed during the Second World War.[13][14]
In 1845 in Odolany were built standard-gauge (1,435 mm) railway tracks of the Warsaw–Vienna Railway (today part of the railway line no. 1).[15][16]
In 1890, Fort Ve-Shcha "Odolany" was built in the village as part of the inner circle of the series of fortifications of the Warsaw Fortress, built around Warsaw by the Russian Empire. Most of the fort has been destroyed, with its concrete bunker being the only remaining part of the building.[17][18]
Between 1901 and 1903 in Odolany were built Russian gauge (1520 mm) railway tracks of the Warsaw–Kalisz Railway, which connected Warszawa Kaliska railway station in Warsaw with Kalisz railway station in Kalisz. The section of railway tracks in Odolany was located between the Warszawa Kaliska and Błonie railway stations.[11][19] The section included the railway viaduct, located near current Armatnia Street, which, built in 1902, was probably the first railway object in the Russian Empire to use reinforced concrete in its construction. In 1914, the railroad was rebuilt into standard-gauge (1,435 mm) railway tracks, though it consisted mostly of the provisional structures. After 1918, the railroad was rebuilt as permanent structure. The railway viaduct was not rebuilt with the standard-gauge and was disconected from the railway network. Today, it is the only remaining element of the original Warsaw–Kalisz Railway line in Odolany.[20]
On 1 April 1916, most of Odolany was incorporated into the city of Warsaw.[21] Its remaining western portion eventually became a gromada (village assembly) in the gmina (municipality) of Blizne. It was incorporated into Warsaw on 5 May 1951.[22]
Between 1922 and 1929, at the southern boundary of Odolany was built the Warszawa Szczęśliwice motive power depot.[11][23]

On 1 September 1939 Nazi Germany invaded Poland, beginning the Second World War.[24] The city of Warsaw capitulated to the invading forces on 28 September 1939, becoming part of the occupied territories of the General Government.[25] In the night of 7 to 8 October 1942, in the Operation Wieniec, sapper squadrons of the Home Army targeted the rail infrastructure near Warsaw, detonating bombs which destroyed railway tracks and derailed several trains. In retaliation, on 16 October 1942, the occupation forces executed 50 prisoners of the Pawiak prison by hanging. Among them, 9 prisoners were hanged near the railway tracks near Warszawa Szczęśliwice and several others at the Wola Gallows near Mszczonowska Street.[26]
Between 5 and 12 August 1944, in the Wola massacre, the occupant forces systematically killed between 40,000 and 50,000 Polish people who lived in the district of Wola, including the neighborhood of Odolany.[27][28]
The neighbourhood begun developing after the end of the Second World War in 1945. At the main road of Odolany, Jana Kazimierza Street, was built the factory of the Ludwik Waryński Construction Machines Factories (Polish: Warszawskie Zakłady Maszyn Budowlanych im. Ludwika Waryńskiego). Additionally, between Ordona Street, Kasprzaka Street, and Prymasa Tysiąclecia Avenue operated the General Świerczewski Precise Products Factory (Polish: Fabryka Wyrobów Precyzyjnych im. gen. Świerczewskiego).[29]
In the 2010s, in the areas owned by companies VIS and Bumar-Waryński, around the Jana Kazimierza Street and Ordona Street, were built neighbourhoods of multifamily residential apartment buildings.[9]
