Renoma

Renoma is an Art Deco department store on Świdnicka Street in Wrocław, featuring white and gray marble imported from Portugal and Turkey across multiple floors. The interior is defined by large Art Deco chandeliers and offers various retail spaces alongside dining venues.

The structure was designed by Hermann Dernburg in 1930 and used steel-frame construction techniques that were revolutionary for European buildings at the time. The building demonstrated advanced engineering solutions that were uncommon during that era.

The name Renoma comes from the original department store chain and remains a central gathering place for everyday shopping and socializing in Wrocław. Its wide corridors and open spaces encourage people to linger and browse naturally.

The building offers ample parking spaces and bicycle storage facilities for visitors. Its location on Świdnicka Street makes it easily accessible by public transportation, with multiple entrances allowing convenient access throughout.

The building stands as Poland's largest surviving example of a pre-war Wertheim department store and contains two courtyards restored to their original 1930s layout. These reconstructed courtyards reveal the careful restoration of the historical floor plan.
