Protest Against The Gentrification Of Kazimierz In Krakow

Participants protest against the gentrification of Kazimierz and the closing of iconic establishments in front of the Basilica of Corpus Christi in Krakow, Poland, on May 31, 2026. People gather to express opposition to the demolition of tenement houses in Kazimierz and the construction of a luxury hotel. The owner, the Order of Canons Regular of the Lateran, grants permission for the building's management, De Silva Haus S.A. The demolition involves the eviction of residents and the closure of venues such as the Eszeweria bar. City officials announce changes to the development plan and assistance for residents, but the rent of the premises was increased, leading to closures by the end of May.
