During the Warsaw uprising in 1944 in nearby Błonie there was a cell of the Central Welfare Council, led by Tytus Murzyński, the owner of properties in Kopytów and Wójtowizna. On the upper floor of a corner interwar building (currently on the crossing of 3 Maja and Warszawska streets) there was an insurgents’ hospital which was the workplace for women earlier trained in the women’s battalion of the Home Army. Officially, the insurgents were treated for “various illnesses” (in reality they had more serious wounds dressed) and their medical records often indicated infectious dysentery in order to mislead the Germans and prevent the hospital from being inspected. The facility operated for a few more months after the heroic impulse of the soldiers and Warsaw residents. A commemorative plaque was masoned into the building’s wall in 1998.
