Polińskiego Park, Urban park in Praga-Południe, Warsaw, Poland
Polińskiego Park is a green space in the neighborhood between Garwolińska, Szaserów, and Kobielska streets with lawn areas, paths, and recreational zones. It includes a football field, modern playground equipment, an exhibition pavilion, a cafe building, and a public water fountain.
The park was established in 1962 on land that once held allotment gardens and preserves remnants of Fort XIA from the Warsaw Fortress. This fort had already been completely demolished by 1957, before the park's creation.
Two busts honor Maciej Sulkiewicz and Veli bej Jedigar, figures connected to Azerbaijan and the Polish Home Army. These monuments, added in 2017, shape how visitors encounter the park today.
The park is open daily for visitors and offers activities for all ages, from walking around to using the playground or football field. A cafe on site provides refreshment options while you spend time in the space.
An artificial hill within the grounds serves as Golgotha during the local parish Way of the Cross processions each year. This religious use transforms the recreation area into a spiritual gathering place in an unexpected way.
