The central and southern portion of Odolany is covered by the railway infrastructure, including the railway tracks, as well as technical, administrative and employee housing buildings of the Polish State Railways.[6] There is also located the Warszawa Szczęśliwice motive power depot.[7]

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.[8][9] In 1528, the village was noted to have an area of 5 lans, which equals to around 85 hectares (0.85 km² or 0.328 sq mi). In 1789, in Odolany were located 18 houses.[8]

In Odolany, between current Ordona Street and Prądzyńskiego Street, was located the Yellow Tavern (Polish: Żółta Karczma). It was one a popular meeting place for the nobility members, to held political discussions and agitations, and vote buying, during the royal elections in Wola. During the elections, which were held in the period between 1572 and 1791, the members of nobility, would vote to chose the leader of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. The building was destroyed in the 20th century, during the Second World War.[10][11]

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).[12][13]

In 1890, Fort Ve-Shcha "Odolany" had been build in the village, as part of the inner circle of the series of fortifications of the Warsaw Fortress, build around Warsaw by the Russian Empire. Most of the fort had been destroyed, with its concrete bunker being the only still remaining part of the building.[14][15]

Between 1901 and 1903 in Odolany were build 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 railway stations of Warszawa Kaliska railway station and Błonie.[8][16] The section included the railway viaduct, located near current Armatnia Street, which build in 1902, probably was 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.[17]

On 1 April 1916, most of Odolany was incorporated into the city of Warsaw.[18] 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.[19]

Between 1922 and 1929, at the southern boundary of Odolany was built the Warszawa Szczęśliwice motive power depot.[8][20]

On 1 September 1939, the Nazi Germany had invaded Poland, beginning the Second World War.[21] The city of Warsaw had capitulated to the invading forces on 28 September 1939, becoming part of the occupied territories of the General Government.[22] In night of 7 to 8 October 1942, in the Operation Wieniec, the sapper squadrons of the Home Army had targeted the rail infrastructure near Warsaw, detonating bombs which destroyed railway tracks and derailed several trains. In the retaliation, on 16 October 1942, the occupation forces had executed 50 prisoners of the Pawiak prison, via hanging them on gallows. Among them, 9 prisoners were hanged near the railway tracks near Warszawa Szczęśliwice, and several others, at the Wola Gallows near Mszczonowska Street.[23]

Between 5 to 12 August 1944, in the Wola massacre, the occupant forces had systematic killed of between 40,000 and 50,000 Polish people who lived in the district of Wola, including the neighborhood of Odolany.[24][25]

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 Constuction 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 Factiry (Polish: Fabryka Wyrobów Precyzyjnych im. gen. Świerczewskiego).[26]

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 the multifamily residential apartment buildings.[27]
