History

The house was built in 1892-1893, designed by Bydoszcz's architect Józef Święcicki for Carl Peschel, a rentier. At the time, the address was "Danzigerstrasse 57", Bromberg.[2]

Since its creation, the edifice has been conceived as a renting house (more than 15 inhabitants were registered at this address in 1900)[3] and commercial building.

Features

The building has an eclecticism style facade.

The red brick wall contrasts with the rich, neo-baroque details, the rococo stuccoes -distant reminiscence of northern Mannerism.[4] On the symmetry axis of this two-winged building is placed a gate door with wrought iron decorative elements.

In the same area, Józef Święcicki also realized other edifices, among which:

The building has been put on the Pomeranian heritage list (N°A/11), 12 October 1999 [1]
