Henryków, Białołęka

The name Henrykowa derives from the name of the Jewish entrepreneur Henryk Bienental, who in 1904 launched a distillery on the site of the former buildings of the Dąbrówka farm.

Henryków was then the largest population centre in the area of today's Białołęka.

[1] The complex of the former yeast factory at Klasyków Street contributed to the development of this part of Białołęka and is one of the better preserved industrial plants from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries in Warsaw.

The complex includes a residential house - a unique example of a factory villa, preserved in almost unchanged form.

[1] The former yeast plant complex is being renovated by the Finnish developer YIT and will become part of the Aroma Park housing project.
