Staw Dąbski, Ecological water area in Grzegórzki district, Kraków, Poland.

Staw Dąbski is an artificial pond in Kraków's Grzegórzki district that covers several hectares of land. The water supports various fish species, amphibians, and aquatic plants that form the pond's ecosystem.

The site originated from a clay pit used by a local brickyard in the first half of the 20th century. After the brickyard closed, the excavated area filled with water and was later transformed into a protected ecological zone.

The name reflects the village of Dąbie that once stood here, and the city preserved it as a refuge for water plants and birds. Visitors notice the water lilies and various wading birds feeding along the shore today.

The pond sits along Pokoju Avenue and is easy to reach by public transport. Paths around the water pass through open ground and are accessible on foot or by bicycle.

The pond is home to two rare mollusks found nowhere else in the region. These special residents draw the attention of nature conservationists and curious visitors alike.
