The house of Konrad Bock in Serock Ośrodek TPD (the Centre of the Society for Children) Wyzwolenia 31 Str.
The house was built in 1931 for a medical doctor in Serock, Dr. Konrad Bock, a reserve officer and a participant of the war of 1920. Despite his German ancestry, he refused to cooperate with the Nazis. He was imprisoned at Pawiak and executed by firing squad in a public execution on the 31 of December 1943. His son, Lubomir Wojciech, died defending British skies as a soldier of the Polish Air Force in England. The second son, Ryszard, a lawyer and a graduate of the Officer Cadet School in Zegrze, a reserve first lieutenant, prisoner of the concentration camp in Starobielsk, was murdered by the Russians in 1940 in Kharkov. In 2010, in order to commemorate him, a memorial oak was planted at the site.

After the 2nd World War, the house hosted a Health Centre, run in the years 1953–55 by General Stefan Hubicki (1877-1955), a well-known supporter of Józef Piłsudski, an activist of the Polish Military Organisation and for a certain time a personal physician of Piłsudski, in the years 1930–34 the Minister of Labour and Social Policy and later in 1935-1939 the Commissioner of the State Insurance Institution in Warsaw. His second wife was Hanna Regina née Boguszewska, a courier of the Polish Military Organisation and a participant in the action of the secret transfer of Marshal Rydz-Śmigły from Romania to Warsaw during the 2nd World War.
