The lives of Śródka’s historic residents were a struggle against all odds: they constantly strived to improve their living conditions and protect their rights. Their plight was the most desperate at the turn of the 20th century. Interestingly, rather than making the residents apathetic, the day-to-day challenges inspired them to seek change and take action. This is when they acquired their sense of community, as its members took matters into their own hands rather than waiting for outside help. Śródka residents deserve credit for having achieved their goal by working together and displaying outstanding determination and willpower.
