Odolany
Odolany is a neighbourhood, and an area of the City Information System, in the city of Warsaw, Poland, located within the district of Wola.
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.
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.
Odolany hosts the Institute of Computer Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences, which conducts research on computer science. There are also two private universities in Odolany: the Higher School of Rehabilitation, and the Edward Wiszniewski Higher School of Economics.
The Warszawa Wola railway station, on railway line no. 20, is located near Prymasa Tysiąclecia Avenue. The station is operated by Polish State Railways.
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. Also in Odolany is the Warszawa Szczęśliwice motive power depot.
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. 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.
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 choose the leader of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. The building was destroyed during the Second World War.
