Organist's Wife

The organist’s house is a half-timbered building constructed in the mid-19th century. Originally, the building was intended as a residence for the organist and possibly as a church school.

In 1859, the church underwent renovations, and it was likely at that time that the organist’s house was built. After World War II, due to damage sustained during the war, the building had to be shortened. Between 1985 and 1987, a comprehensive renovation was carried out, including the reconstruction of the organist’s residence; at that time, it was decided that the building would house the municipal library. During the reconstruction, the building was demolished down to its foundations and rebuilt using modern materials. The building was reconstructed according to its original floor plan, preserving the historical interior layout. The structure is built on a rectangular plan, with its facade facing west. It is characterized by a compact, well-proportioned form. It is a single-story building, partially basemented, with a usable attic intended for the library’s exhibition halls. The building is covered with a gable roof. The walls are constructed of ceramic brick and are plastered. The west wall and the south gable are built using half-timbered construction. The walls of the building are adorned with medallions depicting Jan Kochanowski, Adam Mickiewicz, and Stefan Żeromski.

The interior of the building contains no historical elements.
