This small town was founded in 1842 by a group of exiled Poles. The Polish forces having fought with the Ottomans during the Crimean War, Sultan Abdülmecit granted them land near the present Beykoz. The community created a small local Poland, hence the name of the village. Polonezköy is one of the most popular destinations for the people of Stambouli for its bucolic side. However, the village has literally turned into a hotel-restaurant. Some establishments even associate it with the farmhouse side. Many people come on weekends, and even more on public holidays. In June, the Cherry Festival is held.
