Post-industrial Radom (part 1)

About :
The workers', factory or, as some would say, industrial character of Radom began to take shape over 200 years ago. At that time, the city flourished, associated with the establishment of numerous plants, mainly related to the tanning industry. This can be easily verified by comparing data on the number of inhabitants in individual years, so as not to be unfounded I will use publicly available information. In 1811, it was about 2.5 thousand people, while at the end of the 19th century it was already over 10 times more, i.e. over 26 thousand, and by the time Poland regained independence, this number had also doubled. It was important for the city to be included in the Central Industrial District. It is worth adding here that just before the outbreak of World War II, the number of inhabitants of Radom was approaching 100 thousand. At that time, there were plans to build, among others, a car factory here. How the history of the city would have turned out, what it would look like today if not for the Nazi occupation, we will never know, we can only guess. However, after this period, the city quickly returned to its industrial character, but on slightly different terms. I will have the opportunity to talk about this a bit later. The period of prosperity ended with the advent of the Third Polish Republic and the freedom that many had been waiting for. The residents of Radom found out quite quickly and very painfully what this entailed, experiencing the effects of shock therapy or, if you prefer, shock without therapy. So this will be my story about how a well-developed manufacturing and factory center became a fallen post-industrial city. Well, but let's start from the beginning... _______________________ https://spacerporadomiu.wordpress.com/ / spacerporadomiu2020
