Zygmunt Krasiński Street or Krasińskiego Street is an avenue of Bydgoszcz, in downtown district (Polish: Śródmieście).

Śniadecki Street is oriented east-west and provides a link between Gdańska Street, Bydgoszcz in the west and May 3rd street to the west. It is the continuation of Śniadecki street east of Gdańska Street. It crosses Gimnazjalna and Libelta streets and ends at Leszek the White Square .

Through history, this street had the following names:

Current patron of the street is Zygmunt Krasiński (1812– 1859), a Polish nobleman traditionally associated with Adam Mickiewicz and Juliusz Slowacki as one of Poland's great Romantic poets who influenced national consciousness during the period of Poland's political bondage.

The street is not mentioned on maps before the second half of the 19th century. In 1876, a map by Paul Berthold Jaekel features a start of a west-east oriented axis in the vicinity of today's N°10, without interception of Gdańska street to the west.

In 1900, Fröhnerstraße is displayed on a city map, starting at Danzigerstraße in the west and ending at Hempelstraße to the east, where land is not urbanized yet. On this map, the only building mentioned is at N°10 (House for blind children - German: Blinden-Anstalt).

In 1908, a physical education hall (German: Gymn-Turnhalle) is referred to on a map at N°7.
