Preachers' House, Mannerist townhouse in Old Town, Gdańsk, Poland.
The Preachers' House presents a facade divided into three identical sections, creating an appearance of separate townhouses on Katarzynki Street.
Built between 1599 and 1602 by architect Anthonis van Obbergen, the building served as accommodation for Lutheran clergy from St Catherine's Church.
The Dutch-style facade includes an inscription from Psalms about finding strength in faith, reflecting the Protestant influence in Renaissance Gdańsk.
The structure now functions as a Regional Endocrinological Health Centre, maintaining its historical exterior while serving modern medical purposes.
Despite extensive damage during World War II, the original facade remained standing and underwent complete restoration in 1970.
