Dom Pod Orłami in Warsaw

Dom Pod Orłami in Warsaw, Banking building in Śródmieście, Poland

Dom Pod Orłami is a banking building in Warsaw's city center featuring a distinctive copper facade decorated with floral patterns. The structure is marked by two large stone eagles at the corners and now houses the National Council of Cooperative Societies and a museum dedicated to the history of cooperatives.

The building was constructed between 1912 and 1917 on the site of a former dissection room and chapel of the Holy Infant Jesus Hospital. Its creation was part of an urban modernization wave that replaced older medical facilities with modern commercial structures.

The two stone eagles at the corners were created by sculptor Józef Zygmunt Otto and represent strength and protection. The reliefs on the facade show agricultural labor scenes that reflect the building's connection to the cooperative movement.

The building is located at the corner of Jasna 1 street in an easily accessible central location. Interior access to the museum spaces and administrative offices is available during regular business hours, while the exterior can be admired at any time.

In 1964 the building was the site of a major bank robbery where thieves stole a substantial sum in złotys. The heist ended tragically with the death of two security guards.
