Słowackiego Street, Bydgoszcz

It connects the main thoroughfare Gdańska Street to the green area of Jan Kochanowski Park in Bydgoszcz and the Pomeranian Philharmonic building.

Słowackiego Street is listed as Bismarck Straße on Bromberg address book in 1905 for the first time:[1] only the administrative building of the district, playing also the role of a courthouse (German: kreishaus), is mentioned there.

After the re-creation of the Polish State (1920), the tenement housed a part of the district administrative offices, together with the building at Nr.7: for this purpose, it underwent an interior remodeling led by architect Jan Kossowski.

On the ground floor, the portal shows Neo-Baroque influences, with its Corinthian order columns and adorned lintel topped by finials and the large doors with semi-circular glass transom light.

The top level abounds with German historicism references, especially by combining materials (plaster, wood, timber framing), shapes (balconies, loggias, ridge turret, dormer) and decoration motifs (Art Nouveau-like pattern).
