Huby (Polish pronunciation: [ˈxubɨ], German: Huben, [ˈhuːbən]) is a district in Wrocław located in the southern part of the city. It was established in the territory of the former Krzyki district.
Initially a village, the settlement was incorporated into Breslau (today's Wrocław) in 1868.[2] Huby's most important object is the city's main bus station, integrated with the Wroclavia shopping center.[3]
History[edit]
The earliest record of Huby dates back to 1346. The area has a history dating back to the Middle Ages, but its current role in the city was established in modern times. Architecturally, the estate is divided into two parts: the Old Huby, located between the railroad tracks and Kamienna Street, where pre-World War II kamienice dominate; and the area between Kamienna Street and Armii Krajowej Avenue, known as the New Huby, which was built in the 1970s.[3]
In 1991, after reforms in the administrative division of Wrocław, Huby became one of the city's 48 districts.[3][4] In 2004, the neighborhood of Glinianki was incorporated into Huby.[5]
