English: Warsaw during World War II: Photo taken from Hotel Polonia (corner of al. Jerozolimskie 39 and Poznańska 40) shows on the left details of facade of Rackman townhouse (corner of al. Jerozolimskie 41 and Poznańska 39) and on the right ruins of Dworzec Główny (Main train station). Rackman Townhouse was in 1939 housing Komunalna Kasa Oszczędności (Communal Saving Bank), that is why one can see letters KKO.
