There is a number of ways to create a "town in the city." It may emerge, for example, as a result of preserving some specificity by an independent urban unit after it has lost its independence and become part of a greater one. Cracow was granted the Charter in 1257. Then it was the capital of Poland, nowadays it is the third biggest city in the country. From the 13th to the 20th century, eight neighbouring towns of different size and importance originated and grew more or less successfully next to Cracow to be eventually incorporated into the city. The author discusses mostly the epilogues of their stories, which took place after they had become the districts of Cracow. Three districts can be now recognized as "towns in the city": 14th-century Kazimierz, 18th-century Podgorze and 20th-century Nowa Huta, which were joined with Cracow in 1800, 1915 and 1951, respectively. Each of them was created in a sort of particular opposition against Cracow, however those reasons have already lost all significance. Before the unifications, those towns had full municipal rights, being already well-developed areas of considerable population, economy, and urban form. Still recognizable for their unique features and values, such as local traditions and attitude, particular functions and architecture, those three "towns in the city" have recently enjoyed increasing interest and attractiveness.
