Eduard Schulz Tenement is a habitation house located at 66/68 Gdańska Street in Bydgoszcz, Poland.
Location
The building stands on the eastern side of Gdańska Street, between Słowackiego street and Adam Mickiewicz Alley. It is close to Alfred Schleusener Tenement at Nr.62, another historical building in the same street.
History
19th century
In the middle of the 19th century, Karl Hildebrandt a judicial executor opened in the back yard a summer garden and a bowling. In 1882, in the garden at the back of the property was built a wooden summer theater, originally called Victoria, on the design of architects Józef Święcicki and Anton Hoffmann. Theater and concerts performances were held here.[1]
The new house was standing on a previous building where Eduard Schulz was living since 1893.[2] He had there his restaurant, Elysium.
Eduard Schulz's period
The tenement has been built in 1904-1905 for the restaurateur Eduard Schulz by the architect Rudolf Kern.
The building is stretched along Nr.66 and Nr.68 of Gdańska Street: both houses formed a complex network for house and business purposes. Its address was, in Bromberg's time, 134 Danzigerstrasse.[2]
Eduard Schulz opened there a new restaurant, Zum Reichskanzler (To the Reich Chancellor).
1920s till today
In 1922, the Company Deutsches Haus became the new owner of the lot: it ran in the premises a restaurant, a German theater Deutsche Bühne and a hotel until 1945.
After World War II, a new restaurant, Słowianka, has been set up there. In the period 1947-1949 at the very place of the old wood theater was built the actual Polish Theatre by architect Alfons Licznerski.
In the upper levels a disco club opened in November 1975.
Today, Nr.68 houses the District Chamber of Legal Advisers of Bydgoszcz.[3]
Architecture
Eduard Schulz tenement has got an Art Nouveau decorated facade decoration, significantly impoverished as a result of renovation and rehabilitation.[1]
Initial decoration of Nr.66 frontage have been revived by a refurbishment during summer 2016. Likewise, on the facade of Nr.68, one can still notice gargoyles and stylized floral motifs. Inside are still preserved a staircase with its original door, railings and stuccoes.
