Additional Information

Lodz, recognized as Poland’s third largest city, was once the heart of the country’s industry a century ago. This historical prominence gave it the moniker of the Promised Land or the Polish Manchester. Its rich history is what truly brings the city to life.

During the horrific times of World War II, this city was seized by the Nazi Germans, renamed Litzmannstadt, and made a part of the Reich. The Nazis established a ghetto in the city, incarcerating over 200,000 Polish Jews. Only a handful survived. The district remains standing today as a stark reminder of the past’s tragic events.

Lodz is a city marked by contrasts. Amid a labyrinth of factories and workshops, a charming city center is tucked away. This vibrant hub is considered the most enchanting part of the city with its striking pre-war buildings, adorned with intricate facades. These buildings feature a unique architectural style that sets them apart from those found in cities like Warsaw and Krakow. A quick hour and a half journey from Warsaw allows you to experience the beauty and history of Lodz, making it an excursion worth exploring.
