Adam Piekarski discusses historic house in Ożarów Mazowiecki

Adam Piekarski, the owner of a unique 120-year-old ‘house with a tower’ in Ożarów Mazowiecki, shared his personal history and the building's significance. Born in Littleborough, England, Piekarski's family connection to the United Kingdom stems from his grandfather and uncle, who arrived in England with Anders' Army during World War II.

Piekarski discussed the historical context of his birthplace, noting Rochdale's role as the birthplace of the global cooperative movement in 1844. He also drew parallels between the English cooperative traditions and the development of similar cooperative movements in Poland during the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
