FORESTER'S HOUSE IN HAJNÓWKA – AS A VARIANT OF THE COMMUNITY CENTER

In the interwar period, Hajnówka transformed from a rural town into an urban center. Its development was based on the dynamically developing wood industry. To meet the needs of the employees of the Wood Works of the State Forests, as well as all residents of the city, the Forester's House was built. The building is an example of a variant of a community center, erected with one professional group in mind and popular at that time. The architectural and functional solutions used are characteristic of the era, but also have many individual features that increase the value of the building as a testimony to the past.

Abstract

In the interwar period, Hajnówka transformed from a rural town into an urban center. Its development was based on the dynamically developing wood industry. To meet the needs of the employees of the Wood Works of the State Forests, as well as all residents of the city, the Forester's House was built. The building is an example of a variant of a community center, erected with one professional group in mind and popular at that time. The architectural and functional solutions used are characteristic of the era, but also have many individual features that increase the value of the building as a testimony to the past.
