    Abstract

    At the end of the 19th century, Reverend Jan Siemiec initiated caretaking and didactic activities among the children and the youth in the Warsaw borough of Powiśle. In a previously purchased square, he erected a building housing a school, a dormitory, workshops and a Holy Family rectoral church. In 1919, the board management of the Foundation was taken over by Salesians. They enlarged the facility in which they placed the province management, the Salesian Publishing House and the Central Office of Salesian Assistants, previously seated in Oświęcim. In 1923, they also started the Graphic Section at the Salesian Craft School. Printing and bookbinding workshops at the same time fulfilled the tasks of a Salesian printing house.
