The tenement house at 61 and 61A Hoża Street in Warsaw. It survived the war and became a historical monument.

“The tenement house design was created in 1887 and assumed the construction of a corner, four-story brick building with a basement and an outbuilding, maintained in the neoclassical style with limited architectural detail. Construction under the supervision of the district architect Aleksander Woyde began in the same year. During the implementation, the design was modified – the corner balconies were moved to the front elevation, and the rusticated pilasters flanking the main entrance were abandoned,” describes the Mazovian Voivodeship Conservator of Monuments.

In 1889 the property was purchased by Aleksander Markow, and then in 1907 it became the property of Kazimiera and Leonard Rettinger. The Rettinger family was involved in patriotic activities. Leonard Rettinger participated in the 1905 revolution. His son Wacław Graba-Łęcki (Rettinger until 1922) belonged to the 1st Cadre Company of the Legions. Wacław's brother – Edward Rettinger acted as a lawyer in Lublin before the war, and in the post-war period, among others, as a defense attorney in political trials of former Home Army soldiers, including Witold Pilecki.

In the years 1939-1944 the tenement house at 61 Hoża Street was slightly damaged, it was one of the few not to burn down. The property was nationalized and taken from Edward Rettinger in 1951. It is currently private property.
