Protest Against The Gentrification Of Kazimierz In Krakow

Participants protest against the gentrification of Kazimierz in front of the iconic Eszeweria bar in Krakow, Poland, on March 1, 2026. People gather to protest against the demolition of iconic and artistic tenement houses in Kazimierz and the construction of a luxury hotel in their place. The owner, the Order of Canons Regular of the Lateran, grants permission for the building's management, De Silva Haus S.A. The demolition of the tenement house entails the eviction of residents and the closure of iconic venues such as the Eszeweria bar. City officials announce changes to the development plan and assistance for residents, and the administrator threatens lawsuits for high compensation if the project is blocked. Protests on the streets of Kazimierz last all day and include a market and a concert. (Photo by Klaudia Radecka/NurPhoto)
