School on Weringerstrasse. 1958-1959 Archbishop V. Adler. A unique example of school construction is a school for children with physical disabilities (the consequences of polio). The building in which children study, spend most of the day, do gymnastics, take medical procedures, thought out to the smallest details in all functions. Two buildings standing in the garden perfectly match their purpose. Each of the windows facing the sunny side is placed in a deep square cell. From the side of the Weringerstrasse is a two-story building, the second floor hangs on poles above an open passage, in the depths of which there is an almost continuous window of the lobby. The second, higher case - almost entirely of glass, with lightweight partitions. The building inspires a sense of freedom, ease, joy.
