Mokotów (pronounced as /pl/) is a city quarter of Warsaw, the capital of Poland. It is densely populated, and hosts many companies and foreign embassies. Only a small part of the district is lightly industrialised (Służewiec Przemysłowy), while the majority is full of parks and green areas (Mokotów Field).
Although the area has been populated at least since the early Middle Ages, Mokotów was not incorporated into Warsaw until 1916. The origins of the area's name are unclear, first appearing as the village of Mokotowo in documents from the year 1367. It is hypothesised to have come from the name of a German owner of the village, who called himself Mokoto or Mokot, although no exact reference to such an individual has been found in historical records. Most of the area was urbanised and redeveloped throughout the 1930s in the style of modernism. The majority of buildings survived World War II, making it one of the few well-preserved pre-war areas of Warsaw. Mokotów Prison is located within the borough. Residential real estate in Mokotów, particularly in the neighbourhoods of Stary Mokotów and Wyględów, ranks among the most expensive in Warsaw.[3]
The following lower-level administrative units (osiedle) are established within Mokotow (they do not cover the whole district).
