Stanisław Wojtowski was born on 9 May 1850 in Skoki, in Greater Poland, to Teodor Wojtowski and Maria, née Rodewald. After completing his education at the gymnasium of Maria Magdalena in Poznań, he did compulsory military service in the Poznań garrison, attaining the rank of officer, and around 1874 was promoted to the rank of rittmeister. He then moved to Berlin, where he took up studies at the Technische Hochschule Berlin-Charlottenburg. He trained in civil engineering and architecture. While in Berlin, he married Elisabeth Frohnrath, with whom he had two sons and five daughters.

Around 1880, he settled with his family in Wiesbaden, where he opened his own architectural office. He quickly established a reputation as a designer of residential houses and luxury villas, particularly in the Historicist style - a popular trend at the time that referred to the past, especially the Renaissance and Baroque periods. His works are characterised by rich architectural detailing, meticulous workmanship and stylistic diversity - from classicist forms to inspirations from the Italian Renaissance and French decorative arts.

In the Hessian capital alone, he designed 11 residential and commercial buildings and 16 villas in the prestigious Neroberg district. He also designed in nearby towns such as Bingen am Rhein and Büdesheim. Many of his buildings have been listed as historical monuments and have been placed under conservation protection. Stanislaw Wojtowski died on 8 December 1913 in Wiesbaden at the age of 63. He is buried in the Neuer Südfriedhof cemetery there.
