Julius Neumann townhouses

Julius Neumann, owner of a printing and publishing house, built a large building in 1882 in what is now Armii Krajowej Street. In 1891, the building was converted and superstructed according to blueprints by Berlin architect Paul Franke, with a beautiful sandstone façade. The entire ground floor of the combined buildings housed offices and the publisher’s bookshop. In 1890, he built the existing post office building at his own expense, which was connected by an above-ground porch to the publishers’ dispatch office.
