It's the narrowest house in Warsaw and Europe and one of the 10 narrowest in the world.
In the 17/18th ages the tax from the house depended on how wide it was, so this was the reason they built rather high, but narrow buildings :)

Yes, very narrow! Love how that window opens on the top right. V

Narrow indeed! Must feel claustrophobic to live there, unless... Good eye, Helen. V

A great find and capture, amazing ,I feel it must open up somehow at the back...,
if not I don't see how any could live there...V

That is small. The stairs would have to take up a lot of room too. Unique architecture and super image. V.

What a great find! I wonder does it get wider towards the rear.
Very nicely captured between its bigger neighbours. V

That is incredibly narrow. This can't be more than six feet wide. Great documentary shot. "V"
