Despite Przemyśl rich and varied history, the city is virtually unknown to the English speaking academic world. This article reviews the extant English language scholarship on the city and recommends potential areas of interest for British, American, and other non-local academics. Currently, most English literature on the city is focused on the World War I era siege, the construction and technical details of the city’s fortress ring, and the Jewish community. I argue that the city has much to offer students of architecture, ethnic studies, urban and religious history.
