krawiecka

Krawiecka is a street name used in several Polish towns and cities. The name derives from krawiec, the Polish word for tailor, and it traditionally signifies a historical connection to the tailoring trade. In many medieval and early modern Polish towns, streets were named after crafts and trades that clustered in particular areas or after guilds that operated nearby, and Krawiecka reflects this pattern.

Streets bearing the name Krawiecka are typically located in or near historic districts or old town cores. The built environment along these streets often reflects the urban fabric of their origin periods, with features ranging from narrow, multi-story townhouses to storefronts that once housed workshops or small workshops. The architectural styles can vary by city and era, including elements from late medieval through later periods, depending on local development and preservation efforts.

Because Krawiecka is a common toponym, each instance has its own local history and context. Some Krawiecka streets are part of municipal heritage routes or conservation areas, and their names may be commemorated by plaques or preserved façades. The name serves as a cultural reminder of the traditional crafts economy that once shaped many Polish towns.
