Dom Prasy in Warsaw, Former newspaper headquarters in Śródmieście, Warsaw, Poland.
Description
Dom Prasy is a red brick building at the corner of Marszałkowska and Polna Streets, featuring distinctive architectural elements from the late 19th century. The structure dominates the streetscape with its red facade in central Warsaw.
History
The building was constructed in 1892 as a carpet factory and was repurposed in 1927 when the Dom Prasy corporation acquired it and transformed it into a media center. This conversion made it an important hub for the press industry in Warsaw.
Culture
The building was a center for major Polish newspapers until World War II, when multiple publications had their editorial offices here. Visitors today can see the facade that still reflects its role in Poland's press landscape.
Practical
The building is located at Marszałkowska 3/5 in central Warsaw and is easily accessible on foot. Visitors should be aware that it remains an active office building, so access to the interior may be restricted.
