Młodziejowski Palace (Pałac Młodziejowskiego, Polish pronunciation: and Szaniawski palaces.
The palace erected at the end of the 17th century originally belonged to the
Bishop of Przemyśl, Andrzej Młodziejowski, for whom the palace was extended by Jakub Fontana
before 1771. In the course of this extension, side aisles were created in the form of side wings connected by an arcade gallery supporting the terrace.
In 1782 the Old
Kosciuszko Uprising was the target of attacks led by Jan Kiliński
, and was destroyed.
In the years 1806-1808 it was rebuilt in the classicist style according to the design of Frederick Albert Lessel for
Feliks Potocki
and in the years 1808-1811 wings were built from Podwale Street. These pavilions, together with the outbuildings, formed a courtyard limited on the street side by iron rails. After 1818 the palace was owned by Karol Zeydler. From 1820 there was a Merchant Resursa, moved around 1829 to the Mniszchów Palace. Then there were bookshops and many stores in the palace. At the end of the 19th century, the building became a tenement house.
During
World War II it was destroyed.[3] During the works on reconstruction, the idea of restoring the building to its 18th-century form was accepted, which was connected with rejection of the 19th-century changes given by Frederick Albert Lessel.[4] The reconstruction was completed in 1957 according to the design of Boris von Zinserling.[5] After the war, it housed the headquarters of the State Scientific Publishing House
, which in 2006 put the building up for sale.
Since 2011 the renovated palace has been the seat of the
Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.[6]
