For many years Nowy Świat has been one of the busiest and most frequented streets; apart from aristocracy palaces, it has always been lined with tenements full of stores and offices as well as service outlets.

At this address in a wooden one-storey building from 18th century the well-known Jankowski’s bakery conducted its activity. During the World War II, the building housed mainly a recruitment office of the Warsaw Arbeitsamt (employment agency) with the inscription above the entrance door saying: “Go to Germany with us”. On 25 April 1942, Jan Bytnar, nom de guerre “Rudy” (Ginger), the commander of “Ochota” scout troop in the Warsaw Council of Gray Ranks, performed a daring act of sabotage by changing the words in the inscription to: “Go to Germany yourselves”. In 1944, the building was destroyed and a two-storey building perfectly harmonising with the neighbouring reconstructed tenements was built in its place. The socialist realist structure, according to the design of Bogusław Szmidt, the chief architect of Poznań International Fair, was constructed in 1949 only in 54 days. It housed the seat of the National Expansion of Radio Reception Institute.
