Jewish Warsaw

Próżna

In the 19th century, the majority of Próżna street 2 [map] residents were Jews, mostly traders attracted by the proximity of the city’s main thoroughfare – Marszałkowska – and Grzybowski square, a dynamic ironwork centre. Before World War II the street was the beating heart of Jewish Warsaw, with well-off families occupying the tenements. Musicians, philanthropists and many other prominent Jews lived on Próżna and it teemed with life until late at night. In 1940, the street was closed off by the ghetto wall.
