Three administrative buildings of a former mine, now residential, at Składowa 1, 2, 3 in Siemianowice Śląskie

Three buildings at Składowa 1, 2 and 3 in Siemianowice Śląskie belonged to the Laura mine, founded in 1871 and called “Siemianowice” from 1936. Today they are residential houses, and they have been on the heritage register since 2012.

What were the buildings used for?

Buildings no. 1 and 2 were built before 1904 as residential houses for the mine's supervisory staff, and in 1926 they were converted into flats. Building no. 3, from around 1908, housed the mine management; flats were created in it in 1937.

What do they look like?

Nos. 1 and 2 are three-storey brick buildings, partly plastered, with a ten-bay facade and a central projection. No. 3 has two storeys, a U-shaped plan, a mansard roof with dormers and a nine-bay facade with a projection.
