Kabaty has been inhabited for at least 600 years. The village of that name was first mentioned in 1386 as belonging to [[Andrzej Ciołek]], [[chorąży|standard-bearer]] of [[Płock]]. Prince [[Janusz I of Masovia]] granted it with [[Chełm Law]] (a local variant of the [[Magdeburg Law]]) and with certain degree of internal autonomy. Until 16th century the village remained a part of [[Ciołek]] family domain. In 1580 census it was reported as covering approximately 70 [[hectare]]s. In early 17th century the village was transferred to the Piekarski family, but in 1656 was completely destroyed by the Swedish armies during [[The Deluge (Polish history)|The Deluge]]. In the 1721 the village of Kabaty, located on the [[Vistula|Wisła River]], had been purchased by [[Elżbieta Sieniawska]], widow of [[Hetman]] [[Adam Mikołaj Sieniawski]] and owner of the [[Wilanów|Wilanów Palace]]. The village was rebuilt after a plague, and its character has been preserved since.
The oldest known records of Kabady come from 1386, when it received [[Kulm law]] rights from duke [[Janusz I the Old]], ruler of the [[Duchy of Warsaw (Middle Ages)|Duchy of Warsaw]]. It was a small farming community, located at the edge of the [[Warsaw Escarpment]], and on a road connecting [[Warsaw]] and [[Czersk, Masovian Voivodeship|Czersk]]. The village was owned by the [[Ciołek coat of arms|Ciołek family]] until 17th century, when it was acquired by the Piekarski family.<ref name=wolff>Adam Wolff, Kazimierz Pacuski: ''Słownik historyczno-geograficzny Ziemi Warszawskiej w średniowieczu''.

Elżbieta Sieniawska, who also bought the surrounding [[Kabaty Forest]], ordered a protection of its animals and trees. Even the wood needed to build her new manor in 1726 was transported from [[Nieporęt]] rather than from the surrounding forest. In 1775 the village had 16 houses and a [[szlachta]] manor. By 1827 it grew to 17 houses and 177 inhabitants, mostly serfs. In 1864, after the [[January Uprising]], the village was administratively attached to [[Wilanów]]. By 1905 it had 38 houses and 319 inhabitants. After Poland regained her independence in 1918, the village became a popular summer vacations place for the nearby town of Warsaw. The forest has been parcelled and a small resort was built there with 8 houses and 61 permanent inhabitants (in addition to 59 houses with 397 inhabitants in the village itself).


== Location and administrative boundaries ==
In 1937 the [[Biuro Szyfrów|Cipher Bureau]] moved to the Kabaty manor. The following year, Warsaw President [[Stefan Starzyński]] purchased the Kabaty Woods for the city and turned them into a park and forest reserve. The Woods are now named after Starzyński. During [[World War II]], they were a scene of partisan warfare against Poland's German occupiers. The heaviest fighting around Kabaty took place during the 1944 [[Warsaw Uprising]], when [[Home Army]] units from southern Poland sought to break through to Warsaw via the Woods.

After the war, the village and the fields adjacent to the Woods were nationalized and treated as a space for Warsaw's further expansion. It was not until 1951, however, that it became part of Warsaw, included in the newly-created borough of [[Ursynów]]. In the 1990s the area was built up with apartment blocks and single-family houses, and agricultural activity was discontinued. The area is now one of the fastest-growing parts of Warsaw. Due to its proximity to the Woods — a popular weekend destination for Varsovians — it is considered especially desirable among the middle class.

Kabaty is a neighbourhood, and a City Information System area, located in Warsaw, Poland, within the district of Ursynów.[1][2] It is a residencial area dominated by multifamily housing, with smaller presence of the single-family housing as well.[1][3]

The oldest known records of Kabady come from 1386, when it was a small farming community.[4][5] It was incorporated into Warsaw in 1951.[6] In 1987 there wss begun construction of the large multifamily residencial neighbourhoods, which lasted throughout 1990s and 2000s.[7][8] In 1995, there was opened the Kabaty station of the M1 line of Warsaw Metro rapid transit underground system.[9][10]

Etymology[edit]

Name of Kabaty comes from Polish surname Kabat, which itself comes from Polish word kabat, an archaic term for a short coat.[11][12]

The neighbourhood is also a namesake of the nearby Kabaty Woods.[11]

History[edit]

The village of Kabaty in 1926.

The oldest known records of Kabady come from 1386, when it received Kulm law rights from duke Janusz I the Old, ruler of the Duchy of Warsaw. It was a small farming community, located at the edge of the Warsaw Escarpment, and on a road connecting Warsaw and Czersk. The village was owned by the Ciołek family until 17th century, when it was acquired by the Piekarski family.[4][5][1]

In 1580, Kabaty and their adjusted farmlands had combined area of around 70 ha. In 1656, it was completely destroyed by the Swedish army during the Deluge, a conflict between Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Swedish Empire.[1]

In 1721, Kabaty was sold to Elżbieta Sieniawska, owner of the Wilanów Estate.[1] In 1726, she ordered the protection of the nearby Kabaty Woods from deforestation. As such, wood needed for construction in Kabaty was imported from Sieniawska's estate in Nieporęt.[13]

In 1775, the village had 16 houses, and in 1827, it had the poupulation of 177 people in 17 houses.[1]

Between 1850 and 1861, the populations of Kabaty and Moczydło fought in court to lower costs of their feudal duties. Following the abolition of serfdom in 1864, Kabaty was incorporated into the municipality of Wilanów.[1] In 1892, the village was bought by Ksawery Branicki, who then established local woods administration.[13]

In 1905, the village was inhabited by 319 people in 38 houses, and in 1920, by 397 people in 59 houses. During the Interwar period, in the woods near Kabaty was established a holiday village with 8 houses and the population of 61 people.[1]

On 31 December 1938, the city of Warsaw bought the Kabaty Woods, and dedicated its portion for urban development.[14][15] On 11 August 1980, it was given the status of the nature reserve.[16]

On 14 May 1951, Kabaty were incorporated into the city of Warsaw.[6]

Beginning in 1987, and continuing throughout 1990s and 2000s, in Kabaty there were constructed series of multifamily residential buildings, as part of the development of the neighbourhood of Natolin.[7][8]

On 7 April 1995, at the intersection of Komisji Edukacji Narodowej Avenue and Wąwozowa Street was opened the Kabaty station of the M1 line of Warsaw Metro rapid transit underground system.[9][10] To the south, next to the Kabaty Woods was also opened the Kabaty Technical and Parking Station, a Warsaw Metro motive power depot.[17]
