Przy Bażantarni Street (Polish: Ulica Przy Bażantarni) is a street in the Ursynów district of Warsaw, Poland.

History

The name of the street originates from a pheasantry (Polish: bażanciarnia), an object that no longer exists, established during the reign of King John III Sobieski to enhance hunting activities, alongside a zoo.

Between 1780 and 1782, August Czartoryski constructed a neoclassical palace on the site of the former pheasantry, designed by Szymon Bogumił Zug. The palace underwent numerous reconstructions, and in the 19th century, its name was changed from Bażantarnia to Natolin in honor of Natalia Potocka.
