Abstract
The article aims at analysing the Wawer microtoponyms that identify hills (e.g., Piaskowa Góra, Góra Lotników, Góry Macierowskie) and those that refer to traditional Polish oronymy (e.g., Giewont, Czarny Staw, Morskie Oko). In the text, I divide the studied names into categories and present their probable etymologies. The article also indicates with which cultural elements, persons and places the described microtoponyms are associated. The analysis leads to the conclusion that the discussed places and the stories associated with them have had a significant impact on the formation of local identity.
