Nicknamed the ‘aquarium’ by the locals, it see

Nicknamed the ‘aquarium’ by the locals, it seems from early on, the architects Stanisław Jan Kawiorski and Taudeusz Steiner expressed concern about whether the ‘swallow’ hovering over the entrance to the administrative centre of the Provincial National Council of Voivodeship in Kielce (1967-71) would survive later modernisations. However it thankfully remains, the latest after 2012 - however a question hangs in the air was it always orange? With thanks to @krakowski_szlak_modernizmu
