Gajowice (Polish pronunciation: [gajɔˈvit͡sɛ], German: Gabitz, [ˈgabɪt͡s]) is a district in Wrocław located in the south-western part of the city. It was established in the territory of the former Fabryczna district.
Initially a village, the settlement was incorporated into Breslau (today's Wrocław) in 1868. [2]
History
Throughout its history, the settlement was known by many names – namely Gay, Gayouice, Goiez, Gawicz, Gaiowicz, Gaywicz, Gabitz, and Gajowice. [3] Since medieval times, it was mainly famous for growing vegetables and fruits. This was favored by its proximity to the city. [2]
Gajowice was one of the Wrocław neighborhoods most affected by World War II. [4] Originally, after the war, Gajowice was set to be "an emergency settlement for the residents of Wrocław evicted from buildings slated for demolition." Subsequent planning changes led to the design of a housing development meant for up to 30,000 residents. At that time, this project was the largest housing development in the city's postwar history. [3]
In 1991, after reforms in the administrative division of Wrocław, Gajowice became one of the city's 48 districts. [5]
