Żerniki (Polish: [ʐɛrˈɲikʲi]; German: Neukirch [ˈnɔʏkɪʁç]) is a district in Wrocław located in the western part of the city. It was established in the territory of the former Fabryczna district.

History

[edit]

It was first mentioned in 1257, when it was part of medieval Piast-ruled Poland.

Initially a village, the settlement was incorporated into Breslau (Wrocław) in 1928.[2] In 1991, after reforms in the administrative division of Wrocław, Żerniki became one of the city's 48 districts.[3]
