Widawa (Polish: [viˈdava]; German: Weide [ˈvaɪdə]) is a district in Wrocław, Poland, located in the northern part of the city.
The village of Widawa and the former landed estate of Pracz nad Widawą were merged to create the settlement.
For the next three centuries, the settlement, which was part of the church estate, developed in the vicinity of Wrocław.
[2] At the end of World War II, during the siege of Breslau, the developing settlement was spared from direct warfare.
The march of Soviet troops and their shelters caused extensive damage and the burning of the estate.
