Warszauera Street in Kraków is a street in Kraków, in District I Old Town, in Kazimierz. It connects Estery Street and Nowy Square with Jakuba Street and the area of the Remah Cemetery.
History
Until the 19th century, a hospital and an old people's home were located on this street.[1] The name Warszauera Street was established in 1908, derived from the surname of Jonathan Warschauer, a physician and social activist of Jewish origin associated with Kraków. Previously, it was called Ubogich Street.[2]
