Piwnica Gorywodów, Gothic house with medieval basements in Bytom, Poland
The Gorywodow cellars feature stone pointed arches and palm vaulting constructed with local dolomite near the central market square of Bytom.
Dating from 1400, these medieval cellars belonged to wine merchants who operated a two-story building with a baroque facade above the underground structure.
The cellars represent medieval craftsmanship through their Gothic architectural elements, demonstrating the building techniques used in Silesian commercial structures.
The historic cellars, located on Strazacka Street, operated as a restaurant venue until 2020 after undergoing restoration work in 1972.
The basements were discovered in 1953 by guide Henryk Gerlinski and named after the Gorziwoda brothers who ran a coffee roasting business there.
