Marymont (from French Mont e Marie - Mary's Hill) is one of the northern neighbourhoods of Warsaw, administratively a part of the borough of Żoliborz. Named after queen of Poland Maria Kazimiera, wife of king John III Sobieski, initially it housed a small summer manor. In 18th century it became notable for a large number of windmills located there on the high escarpment of the Vistula. In 19th century the area became one of the favourite weekend resting places, joined with the city centre by boat communication and a horse tram. In 1920's parts of the neighbourhood were built-up with residential areas. An A-19 Marymont Warsaw Metro station was opened in December 2006.
