Houses in Rózyczka. Building no. 1 was there from the very beginning. It was a brick building with two huge halls suited to accommodate one hundred of children in each hall. Behind this building, there was a playground with climbing ladders for children. In 1925 a new, wooden pavilion, nr. 2, with a large glazed porch was build, perpendicular to the first building. In the new pavilion (2) there were two dormitories for 30 children each, plus a hundred children could sleep at the same porch. No. 3, was a smaller brick building with a veranda and five rooms. After "Rozyczka" (Little Rose) was connected to sewerage system in 1929 the house nr. 3 was rebuilt into the bath room and toilet. The rectangle of building was closed by the white building, no. 4 with a pump and water cistern at the top of the house and rooms for bursa students below. There was also a separate kitchen- and warehouse building in which former pupils of Korczak, now employed as teachers, lived.

| Różyczka summer camp was in the area called Czaplowizna. Main buildings of Rozyczka summer camp were just to the right from the sign Czaplowizna. Closest buildings brick plant, are marked with letters Cg (Cg = Polish Cegielnia) on the map. My father worked there before WWII. |
