The building housing today’s bank was intended for financial activities from the outset. Built in 1919, it was the headquarters of the Municipal and County Savings Bank. At the time, local residents did not regard it as an exceptional structure; rather, they saw it as a modern public-use building for its era. Only today, a century later, do we appreciate its beautiful form, with a gently rounded corner and strongly emphasized horizontal cornice lines that referred to modernism. We also like the high roof with dormer windows and the asymmetrically placed bay window, elements of the building that referred to historicism. The most impressive element of the building was the terrace located at the level of the second floor, shaded by a pergola and picturesquely planted with vegetation.
In 1920, a fire station headquarters was added to the Savings Bank building on its northern side.
Before World War II, the bank building stood on Oberstrasse (Górna Street), which in the postwar years was named after Hanka Sawicka, a communist activist regarded as a symbol of the communist youth movement in the Polish People's Republic. Today, it is a street commemorating the events of August 1980, workers’ strikes and the birth of the 10-million-member NSZZ Solidarność.
The current sale concerns the perpetual usufruct of plots with a combined area of 209 m², developed with a service-and-office building with a net area of 619.89 m².
