The Commandant's House in Nysa, also known as the Old Commandant's Office, is a Baroque small palace built in the first half of the 18th century. In 1743, after the town came under Prussian rule, the building became the seat of the garrison command of the Nysa fortress and fulfilled this function continuously until 1873. At the end of the 19th century, it passed into the administration of the Nysa magistrate, and a museum was opened there. During World War II, the house was burned down, and after its reconstruction in 1981, it became the seat of the State Art Center. Currently, it houses the Complex of Art Schools and Institutions. The gathered museum collections were transferred to the former surgical clinic on Marcinkowskiego Street (currently a bank branch), and from 1984 to the neighboring Bishop's Palace, the former residence of the bishops of Wrocław.
