The Machines Laboratory was built in 1925 under a project designed by
architect Witold Minkiewicz. A part of the Lviv Polytechnic’s historic core, it
is a bright example of a Neoclassical style educational technical institution
building where traditional and reinforced concrete constructions are combined.
According to the resolution of the Regional Executive Committee of the
Lviv Region number 393 dated 22 November 1988, the building was entered in the
Register of local monuments under protection number 309-M. Now it is used as an
academic building.
