Poland, Krakow
A four-story building located on the corner of the Small Market and st. Hay. The first stone building on this site dates back to the 14th century. After the prohibition of the Jesuit order at the end of the 18th century, a hospital, a lyceum and a bursa were located within the walls of the monastery.

This strict four-storey building is one of the cornerstones of the Small Market. The first brick building on this site was erected in the XIV century. The Jesuits operated here in the XVI-XVII centuries. The emblem of the order is preserved on the pediment. After the ban on the activities of the Order at the end of the XVIII century, a hospital, lyceum and bursa were located here. The house acquired a modern look in 1908-1909. The author of the reconstruction was the architect Jó zef Pokutynski.
