History

The village of Miedzeszyn existed as far back as 1580, when it was known as Miedziessin and located in Warsaw County, Warsaw Land, Masovian Voivodeship, Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. [3] In 1926, the Włodzimierz Medem Sanatorium for children with tuberculosis, was opened in the village, by General Jewish Labour Bund and CISZO, and operated until 1942. [4] During the Nazi Germany Occupation of Poland in World War II, there was a ghetto for Jewish population, that operated there until 20 August 1942, when it was liquidated. [5] The village was incorporated into the city of Warsaw on 5 May 1951. [2]
