Osiedle Centrum D

Osiedle Centrum D is a residential complex in Nowa Huta featuring multiple apartment blocks with geometric forms and balanced proportions arranged across the site. The complex sits near Plac Centralny and provides direct access to public transportation, shops, and schools within walking distance.

The district was built between 1950 and 1956 as part of post-war reconstruction plans for Nowa Huta following the Second World War. An additional residential block was added during the 1970s to accommodate growing population needs.

The neighborhood housed the first commercial pavilion of Nowa Huta, known as Bambo, which served as a social meeting point where residents gathered for refreshments. This venue shaped the daily rhythm of the district's early residents.

The complex is well-connected to public transportation and sits within walking distance of shops and schools throughout the neighborhood. It is best explored on foot to fully appreciate the architectural layout and how the buildings relate to one another.

The complex received protected monument status in 2004 under reference A-1132, officially recognizing it as an important example of Poland's post-war urban development. This designation reflects how the district is valued as a model of modern city planning from that era.
