Piotrkowska
Piotrkowska Street begins at the Tadeusz Kosciuszko monument
at the Plac Wolnosci. Lodz would not be whole without this famous
place. This is the main street of our town, perfect for walking. The
newly renovated old buildings and palaces make an incredible
impression on visitors. Young people are coming from all over the
country to party at clubs and have a drink at numerous bars. This
street never “sleeps”. Being here you must sit on the "Tuwim bench",
and rub that popular poet’s nose for luck. Right here, on
Piotrkowska street, the tallest building in Lodz - Stanislaw Kostka
cathedral is located. |

Ksiezy Mlyn
Ksiezy Mlyn is an informal city district; an old factory complex
build and owned by Karol Scheibler. Everything here looks as if the
time has stopped over 100 years ago. The old workers’ houses, alleys,
and palaces make a unique place.
