Scultetus Tenement House photo 1
The Scultetus Tenement House, located on Blessed Virgin Mary Street in Legnica, Poland, is a remarkable Renaissance building dating back to the early 15th century. Notable for its stunning two-zone sgraffito decoration from 1611, which features personifications of the seven liberal arts, this historic site reflects the artistic heritage of the region. Originally adorned entirely in sgraffito, only the upper section remains today after conservation efforts in the 20th century. Once the residence of Johann Scultetus, a prominent humanist and educator, the building now houses the Sports and Recreation Center and the city Tourist Information office, making it a valuable stop for visitors and researchers interested in Legnica's cultural history.
