Henryków, Mokotów

Henryków[a] is a neighbourhood in the city of Warsaw, Poland, in the district of Mokotów.

[4][5] Henryków was established in the early 19th century, by Henryk Bonnet, a clerk and a judge.

[4][5] At the beginning of the 19th century, Henryk Bonnet, a French-born clerk who served as the State Councillor and the judge in the district court of Warsaw, had bought an area around current Malczewskiego Street, establishing there the folwark-type settlement of Henryków.

[6][7] In 1824, Louisa Bonnet de Belon (1802-1876), Henryk Bonnet's daughter, had married George Fanshawe (1789-1867; also known as Jerzy Fanshave), English-born chamberlain and colonel in the Imperial Russian Army.

[10] In 1900, the palace was inherited by nobleman August Potocki, who, while never living there himself, had accommodated there the less wealthy members of his family.

Fanshawe Palace built around 1850, as the residence of the Fanshawe family, the owners of Henryków. Photography made in 2012.
