Information
Lodz is Poland’s second largest city and really deserves to be better known. In its heyday Łódź was known as the Polish Manchester. The once opulent palaces of factory owners stand cheek by jowl to their textile mills.
To put Lodz in a nutshell. The city’s landscape comprises of old brickwork factories. In old days, the town was the textile heart of Central Europe. The 19th century was the time for the German and Jewish industrialists to build their enormous fortunes. The textile industry flourished. Plants were accompanied by lavishly ornamented palaces and villas, as well as working-class settlements. Lodz’ main street, called affectionately Pietryna by the citizens of the city, used to be a mercantile trail. Nowadays it is the most spectacular street of Lodz.
