Founded probably in the 14th century as a property of the [[Służewski]] family (of the [[Radwan coat of arms]]), the village retained much of its rural character until the 1990s, most of its inhabitants being farmers or workers at Warsaw factories. However, since then it has been a reserve of available space for new residential areas, mostly single-family houses for upper-middle-class Varsovians.

History

[edit]

Pyry, historically known as Pery, was founded in the 18th century, originally being the southern extension of the village of Imielin. It was a farming community with a few households.[1][5]

On 30 November 1898, in Pyry was opened the Warszawa Pyry narrow-gauge railway station operated by the Grójec Commuter Railway. It was part of the railway line between stations of Warszawa Mokotów and Nowe Miasto nad Pilicą. The station operated until 1 December 1969. It was at the current intersection of Puławska Street, Akustyczna Street, and Leśna Street.[9][10] The presence the railway station had greatly increased development of the village.[10] In 1921, it was inhabited by 421 people in 60 households.[1]

During the interwar period, Pyry was a holiday village.[5]

In the 1930s, at 8 Kajakowa Street, and in the nearby Kabaty Woods was constructed the military complex of the General Staff of the Polish Armed Forces, which, from 1937 to 1939, housed the branch of the Cipher Bureau responsible for deciphering German codes and messages.[6] A team of mathematicians employed by the bureau, consisting of Marian Rejewski, Jerzy Różycki, and Henryk Zygalski, was the first to decipher coding of the Enigma machine in 1932, used by the Nazi Germany military. They continued working on its deciphering at the facility, and shared their Enigma-decryption techniques there with British and French intelligence agencies in June 1939. [7][11] Currently, it houses the Air Operations Centre – Air Component Command of the Polish Air Force.[12]

On 8 September 1939, Pyry was captured by the German forces during the Invasion of Poland in the Second World War.[13]
