Targówek, Administrative district in Warsaw, Poland
Targówek is a city district on the right bank of the Vistula River with residential neighborhoods and large green areas including Bródnowski Forest and several parks. It has schools, sports facilities, and the Muszelka swimming complex that serves both recreational and rehabilitation needs.
The district grew from a rural area into an urban neighborhood during post-war reconstruction through large housing projects. This transformation after World War II shaped how the area looks and functions today.
Several community centers here serve as gathering places where neighbors organize activities and events throughout the year. The Rampa Theatre hosts regular performances that are part of daily cultural life for residents.
The district is well-connected by public transportation and offers many walking paths through green areas. It is helpful to allow time for exploring the parks and forest areas, as attractions are spread across the neighborhood.
Bródnowski Park contains a sculpture park with contemporary art installations created through a project by artist Paweł Althamer. The artworks are scattered throughout the park grounds, blending nature with modern artistic expression.
