Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak Tenement Houses on Teatralna Street, Wrocław

The complex of three residential buildings at Teatralna 22-26 and Piotra Skargi 7-11 and 13-17 in Wrocław's Old Town was designed by the architect Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak.

Design and construction

Grabowska-Hawrylak received the commission for the design in 1955, and the project was completed in 1959. The architecture of the complex is an example of a deliberate approach to shaping the massing of the buildings and the layout of the residential interiors.

Nearby

The buildings stand in the very centre of Wrocław, a few hundred metres from the Wrocław Opera and the Market Square, and also not far from the Town Hall and the Panorama of the Battle of Racławice.
