Dawny Żydowski Dom Akademicki w Warszawie, Renaissance Revival residential building in Praga-Północ, Warsaw, Poland

The brick structure at Sierakowskiego 7 features a monumental facade with bas-reliefs representing natural science, law, construction, and medicine disciplines.

Constructed between 1924 and 1926 with funds from Auxilium Academicum Judaicum, the building housed 300 students including future Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin.

The building contained 147 residential rooms along with facilities such as a gym, library, reading room, game rooms, and photography darkroom for Jewish university students.

Located in the Praga-Północ district, the building stands as a registered monument accessible through Warsaw's public transportation network.

During World War II, the structure transformed into the Blessed Virgin Mary hospital, where medical procedures were performed on resistance fighters.
