Let's do some time travelling.
The name of the Warsaw district Ochota originates from... an inn, which stood exactly here. It was built in th first half of the nineteen century. Grójecka Street, as we call it today, was then a great road leading far to Cracovia and one of the most popular entrances to Warsaw. In Polish language 'Ochota' means 'eagerness'. It is said, that the name was an answer to 'eagerness to visit an inn' felt by merchants and peasants, who were returning from Warsaw market places. The Ochota Inn was a very big stone building and soon many other houses appeared around. There were also 3 forges, 2 brickyards and a clay pit. The inn gave its name to the village, which in 1880 had more than 800 inhabitants. In 1897 the old inn was replaced by a modern tenement house. Before the I WW Ochota village looked rather like a town.
In the 20-ties in the area existed a big fabric of Tabacoo Company. They also elevated an administrative and residential building, which you can see nowadays at Kaliska 1. During the IIWW and the Warsaw Uprising there were many tough fights here and most of the area was destroyed.
