Chopina Street, Bydgoszcz

Along a roughly oriented south–north axis, it stems from Jagiellońska street and stretches up its half-kilometer length to the Polonia Bydgoszcz Stadium.

The current naming relates to Frédéric Chopin (1810–1849), a famous Polish composer and virtuoso pianist of the Romantic era, who wrote piano solo pieces.

1920[7] Late Art Nouveau Michał Łempicki was born on September 14, 1856, near Sztum, Russian Empire (in today's Poland).

[11] Furthermore, Łempicki joined between 1917 and 1919, the "Provisional Council of State" where he collaborated, inter alia, with Józef Piłsudski, Franciszek Radziwiłł or Władysław Studnicki: he chaired the Department of the Interior, which was responsible for matters related to the organization of local administration, health care and electoral law.

In Bydgoszcz, he kept contact with Warsaw institutions, where he liked to visit the Sejm and enter into political discussions with various ministries, having still many friends in this domain.

[11] The donation comprised books, paintings, letters that his father once received from friends, autographs of Archbishop Zygmunt Feliński, poet Karol Baliński, historian Tadeusz Korzon, Mikhail Bakunin and writer Eliza Orzeszkowa.

[11] The broad villa, renovated in the late 2010s, boasts Art Nouveau elements: one can appreciate, inter alia, a nice eyelid dormer.

[12] After the re-creation of the Polish state, the villa moved to the hands of the Gotard (or Gothard) family, who kept it until the start of WW II.
