The paper continues studies of locally energy minimizing (``harmonic'') maps from a Riemannian polyhedron to a ball of radius \(<\pi/2\) in a geodesic space of curvature \(\leq1\). Compared to previous results, the target is no longer assumed to be locally compact. Under suitable hypotheses, it is proven that local minimizers are Hölder continuous on the interior of the domain. Moreover, for the case of continuous Dirichlet data on a nonempty boundary, continuity of local minimizers at regular boundary points is proven. For a detailed overview over the subject and previous results, see [\textit{J. Eells} and \textit{B. Fuglede}, Harmonic maps between Riemannian polyhedra. Cambridge Univ. Press (2001; Zbl 0979.31001)].
