Nadarzyn

Nadarzyn is a village in the Masovian Voivodeship, located 22 kilometers southwest of Warsaw. Formerly a town, it received its town charter in 1453 under Chełmno law and lost its municipal rights in 1870. With a history dating back to the times of the Duchy of Mazovia, the village was once owned by the Nadarzyński family. In 1507, the first mentions of a Jewish settlement appeared, and in 1554, the first school and hospital were established, the latter surviving until the partitions of Poland. In the 18th century, Nadarzyn developed thanks to its location on a merchant route. After the Third Partition, it was incorporated into the Prussian and later Russian partitions. In the 19th century, the residents of Nadarzyn engaged in patriotic activities, especially during the January Uprising. After World War I and significant destruction, the town began to rebuild, becoming the center of the Młochów municipality. During World War II, Nadarzyn was a resistance point for Polish troops, and after the war, reconstruction accelerated once again. Today, Nadarzyn is a municipality with developed infrastructure, home to over 1,100 businesses, including large companies such as 3M Poland and Scania. In 2022, a train carriage production plant by the Alstom concern was opened. Architecturally, the parish church of St. Clement, built thanks to the foundation of Count Ostrowski, is noteworthy. Culturally, the town is a meeting place for various religious communities, including the Roman Catholic Church and Jehovah's Witnesses. Sports in Nadarzyn are represented by the Gminny Ludowy Klub Sportowy Nadarzyn. Rural tradition intertwines with modernity, creating the dynamic development of this locality.
