About this person
Pniewski, popular amongst the Polish political interwar elite, remained prominent in Communist Poland. Surprisingly, "Beck's of court architect", as he was called by his enemies after 1945 due to his role in designing the palace of the hated minister, constructed his most known buildings after the war - in the People's Republic of Poland.
