63 Podwale Street in Wrocław, Protected historic building in Wrocław, Poland.

The building at 63 Podwale Street is a three-story residential structure with refined architectural details such as decorative balconies and wrought iron gates. The facade shows the craftsmanship of the late 19th century with carefully designed elements that stand out along the street.

The plot at 63 Podwale was parcelled before 1843 from gardens of the Henckel von Donnersmarck counts, and an 1840s house stood there until it was demolished for a new building. In 1897 the royal commercial councillor Theodor Wiskott commissioned a design from the architect Sixt, which was revised by Wilhelm Werdelmann, and the palace-like house was completed in 1898. In 1928 it was adapted by the Simon & Halfpaap company, and in 1937 it passed to Landwirtschaftlicher Treuhandverband Schlesien G.m.b.H. for offices.

The building is named after Theodor Wiskott, a royal commercial councillor and lithographic publisher who commissioned it in 1897; the first design by the architect Sixt was rejected and reworked by Wilhelm Werdelmann. Wiskott sat on the construction committee of Wrocław's Municipal Baths and bought shares in the joint-stock company that built them. Since 2023 the restored house has held the offices of its owner, the real-estate company 9AND7.

The building is located in the Old Town district and easily accessible on foot from other historical sites in the center. The music school housed inside operates during regular school hours, though visits outside these times can be arranged if you inquire beforehand.

The facade's triangular window pediments carry carved sea creatures alongside plant and heraldic motifs, a detail easily missed at street level. The rear elevation once opened onto a large garden and featured a balcony running the building's full width, supported by four Tuscan columns.
