The name of the city comes from the name of its founder – countess Konstancja Potulicka Skórzewska. Forest areas near Warsaw, located on the extension of the Royal Route with access by the Wilanów Railway, were extremely popular among the upper class. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, many impressive mansions were built here, designed by leading Polish architects in all contemporary styles: from neo-Gothic and neoclassicism, through manor-house architecture and the Zakopane style. There were also built mansions in the shape of Italian villas and Rhine castles. Fancy Art Nouveau and modernist villas were built in the area.
