LEISURE ACTIVITIES

EXPERIENCE LODZ

Located in the old factory buildings of the former Poznanski textile factory, the Manufaktura complex is today Poland's largest shopping, arts and leisure centre. A striking example of how tradition and modernity can co-exist. The Manufaktura is a key part of everyday life in this part of the city.

  • SEE LODZ

    Lodz is well known for its National Film, Television and Theatre School. So many of the country's films are made here that the city is often referred to as HollyLodz. The Museum of Cinematography is well worth a visit, as are Lodz's numerous galleries and museums.

  • LIFE IN LODZ

    The history of Lodz has been formed by the Poles, Russians, Jews and Germans who all used to live here. Lodz is therefore often seen as a city of tolerance and diversity, and the various cultures that have left their mark here can still be felt today – in the St. Stanislav Kostka Cathedral, the Oskar Kon villa, the magnificent Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, or Europe's largest Jewish cemetery.

  • FASHION IN LODZ

    Lodz has strong roots in textile production. So it's hardly surprising that the town is still a fashion stronghold today. The FashionPhilosophy Fashion Week takes place here annually and the love of style can also be seen on the streets – the city's inhabitants are well known for their highly individual dress sense. Why not take a seat in a café and indulge in a spot of people watching.

  • GOING OUT IN LODZ

    Like Hollywood's Walk of Fame, the long promenade of Lodz's Piotrkowska Street features inlaid stars dedicated to noted film folk – in this case, famous graduates of Lodz Film School. The street is equally well known for its plethora of bars and clubs. Many of these are tucked away in courtyards, so don't be afraid to explore!

  • LODZ EXCURSIONS

    Children of all ages will find plenty to amuse themselves in Lodz – in the Experimentarium, for example, or in Jupipark, or the Botanical Gardens, where over 3,500 plant varieties occupy an area in excess of 60 hectares. Special children's tours are available.
