History
The building was constructed in 1877 by master mason
The first owner was a brick factory manager, Otto Bollmann, a German merchant who never lived in the house. The edifice was conceived as a tenement house with five apartments. Originally at Schule straße 3, tenants were senior officers, officials and artists, such as:
- Julius Bachmann, Lord Mayor of Bromberg in the 1880s,;[2]
- Jerzy Rupniewski, famous 1920s-1950s Polish painter.[3]
In 1920, the property passed into the hands of Magdalena Łaganowska
After World War II, the tenement was managed by a communist estate agency, till the early 1990s. In 1997, it returned to private hands. Since December 2003, the new owners of the building rebuilt the interiors and opened in July 2008 the Hotel "Bohema".[5] The Café and restaurant "Weranda" opened on April 15, 2007, and restaurant "Black Diamond" on March 22, 2009.[5]
