Marszałkowska Street, Warsaw

Marszałkowska (lit. Marshal's Street) is one of the main streets of Warsaw's city centre. It links the area of Bank Square in the northern part of it with Plac Unii Lubelskiej in the southern end of the city centre. Contrary to a common urban legend attributing the name to Marshal of Poland Józef Piłsudski, the street name is much older and refers to Franciszek Bieliński, a Grand Marshal of the Crown.
