Commemorative plaque on the building of the former Polish Consulate in Chernivtsi

On June 16, 2021, a commemorative plaque was unveiled on the building at ul. Ormiańska 14 in Chernivtsi, which was the seat of the Consulate of the Republic of Poland in 1939-1940.

The Polish Consulate in Czernowitz was initially located in the private apartment of Dr. Stanisław Kwiatkowski. In the 1920s, the facility rented offices in a tenement house at today's ul. Lermontowa 6. Later, the Consulate moved to a villa away from the city center, located near the residence of the Metropolitan of Bukovina (today ul. Josefa Hlávka 12). It is worth mentioning that in 1933, a young official at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Jan Kozielewski (Jan Karski), had his first foreign internship. Both buildings have survived to this day.

Another change of headquarters, to a much more representative one, took place just three months before the outbreak of the war. In June 1939, the Consulate took over an impressive palace at ul. Ormiańska 14, just a few steps away from ul. Pańska (the most representative street of the city, currently ul. Olhi Kobylanska) and the Armenian-Catholic church. It operated here for a year, until Bukovina was occupied by the Soviets in June 1940.
