Collegium Maius, University building in Toruń, Poland.
The Collegium Maius stands as a neo-Gothic structure with stepped gables and a tower featuring corner crenellations along Fosa Staromiejska street.
Built in 1907 as a Craft School, the building later served as the Pomorskie Voivodeship Office and became a German police detention center during World War II.
The architectural design by G. Colley incorporates elements of medieval sacred, defensive, and residential architecture reflecting the German national style and Teutonic traditions.
The building currently houses the Faculty of Philology of Nicolaus Copernicus University and contains multiple lecture halls and administrative offices.
A statue commemorating S. Łaszewski, the first voivode of Pomerania, stands next to the building since its installation in 1997.
