Collegium Maximum, Renaissance Revival building in Toruń, Poland

The three-story Collegium Maximum stands with a high gabled roof, decorated with lion medallions and floral details on its elongated eastern and western facades.

The structure, designed by Berlin architect Julius Habicht, functioned as a Reichsbank branch from 1906 until becoming part of the National Bank of Poland after World War I.

The building now houses the University Computing Center and University Museum, displaying the scientific collections of Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń.

Located at Plac Rapackiego 1 in central Toruń, this educational facility maintains its original features, including a staircase with stained glass windows.

The southern peak of the building features a metal Fortune statue, while decorative towers at the edges emphasize its Dutch Renaissance influences.
