History
The name of the neighborhood comes from the name of the owner of the local farm Shmuel (Samuel) Yakubovich-Schönnenberg, nicknamed Zbytkover (1756-1801), a Jewish merchant, banker, landowner, protégé of King Stanislav Augustus Ponyatovsky, ancestor of the Bergson family (including the philosopher Henri Bergson) During the storming of Prague in 1794 by the Russian army, he sheltered many of the inhabitants of Prague, thereby saving them from death or captivity. Initially, the farm was called Zbytkover Boyunek. Over time, together with the adjoining village and inn, the area became known as Shmulovizna on behalf of its owner.
In the XIX century, the area was also called Shmulevizna and Shmulevshchizna, or briefly Shmulki. In 1897, the Koneser Vodka Distillery (“Gourmet”) was opened here, and in 1902, the Sedletsky Aviation Plant. In 1908 Shmulovizna was incorporated into the city of Warsaw.
During the Second Polish – Lithuanian Commonwealth, roads were expanded, sewage and water pipelines were built, a tram line was built, and on February 1, 1922 a tram depot was opened on Kavienchinskaya Street. After World War II, several new residential complexes were built in Shmulovizna.
Michalow
The eastern part of the modern Shmulovizna microdistrict during the Second Polish – Lithuanian Commonwealth was called Mikhaluv, in honor of Prince Mikhail Peter Radziwill, a philanthropist, philanthropist, who, together with his wife Maria Radziwill, built many shelters for poor children and the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In the period of the Polish People's Republic, struggling with the influence of the local nobility and the church, the name Shmulovizna was assigned to this area. The name of the railway station Mihaluv and Mikhaylovskaya street is preserved from the former name. In 2008, the Society of Friends of Michaluwa was revived - the Association of Prague-Michalów residents, whose goal is to restore the historical name of the territory and its separation into a separate neighborhood.
