Mansjonaria tenement house, Historical tenement house in Warsaw Old Town, Poland

The Mansjonaria tenement house stands at Świętojańska Street 2, featuring a rusticated stone portal and crossed arrows on its keystone.

The building dates from 1478, when mansionist priests acquired it from Mazovian princes to serve at the nearby Collegiate Church of St John.

The structure underwent multiple transformations, including a Baroque reconstruction in 1688 and modifications during post-war rebuilding between 1950 and 1953.

The tenement house contains the Hotel Castle and Restaurant Polka, offering accommodation and dining options in the heart of Warsaw.

During the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, despite the roof burning down, the structural walls remained intact, allowing for its reconstruction.
