Grażyna cinema was founded by Joachim Schall in 1912, and it worked until 1939. This was the first case in Lviv that a building was designed specifically to accommodate a cinema. The project was developed by Roman Feliński.

The building housed a cinema that changed names and owners several times: Pax (1935–1939), Saturn (1941–1944), 27 July Cinema (1944–1946), and V. Korolenka Cinema (1946–1990). Until 2017, the premises housed the Russian Cultural Society named after A. S. Pushkin. Since 2018, it is home to the "House of the Warrior."

The building was built under a project designed by Ferdynand Kassler and Roman Feliński, noted Lviv architects, and developed at the architectural bureau of Michał Ulam. It is an illustrative example of a residential townhouse, whose modern plasticity combines architectural elements and the sculptural decoration made by Zygmunt Kurczyński. The building is an architectural monument (protection number 770). Now it is used for dwelling purposes; the ground floor premises are occupied by the City railway ticket offices for advance sale.

The three-storied building with a basement and an attic was built in 1933-1938 under an project designed by architect and engineer Tadeusz Wróbel as the Club of the Union of municipal workers of the city of Lviv. It is an example of Modernist brick architecture with dominant features of rationalism and the so-called "Krakow stylization decorativism".

The building is an architectural monument of local significance. According to the Lviv regional executive committee's resolution number 280 dated 21 May 1991, it was assigned the protection number 1613.

The building housed the following cinemas: Sinephon (1906–1907), Luna (1907, 1926–1930), and Polonia (1930–1931).

The Kotlyarevsky Cinema operated from 1949 to 1965 at 39 Varshavska Street. The building was demolished in 1982–1983 after the roof collapsed.
