Budowniczowie międzywojennego Tomaszowa Lubelskiego: Andrzej Floryan, Kazimierz Prokulski oraz Bronisław Niewmierzycki
Builders of Interwar Tomaszów Lubelski: Andrzej Floryan, Kazimierz Prokulski and Bronisław Niewmierzycki

Summary/Abstract: In the era of the Second Polish Republic, the number of buildings in Tomaszów Lubelski increased significantly. Although their growing number was not always accompanied by an adequate quality of construction, the town was enriched by several interesting and even high-class buildings. Thanks to them, the previously sparsely urbanised town acquired an urban character matching its rank as a powiat town. The authors of the distinctive buildings were architects from outside Tomaszow Lubelski, but also those who were involved with it for a longer time and represented its own milieu of architects and builders, presented in this article: Andrzej Floryan, Kazimierz Prokulski and Bronisław Niewmierzycki. The representative public buildings they designed contributed to the greater prestige and modernised face of the city. The propaganda role of these buildings should also be considered important, since their national styling helped to emphasise the connection with the recovering Homeland.
