Your guide will be waiting for you with your name by the Planetarium EC1 main entrance (Targowa 1/3, 90-001 Łódź). After a century marred by wartime occupation, economic woes, and industrial decline, Lodz - Poland’s third-largest city - is on the rise. Visit this vibrant metropolis, explore its rich cultural heritage and experience the renewed energy of a city in the midst of an exciting revitalization. Start your walking tour at the Planetarium EC1 main entrance. Head towards Piotrkowska street, a popular avenue full of shops, pubs, restaurants, and sculptures commemorating famous inhabitants of Lodz. Next, walk to the Old Town Square, where your guide shares how this area was home to a thriving Jewish community before World War II. Learn how the look of this square changed during and after the war as your guide points out the simple, Soviet-style architecture. At the end discover the renovated industrial complex of the Manufaktura, which boasts an open-air plaza surrounded by large brick buildings and the longest stretch of fountains in Europe. Once you've had your fill of the third-biggest city in Poland, learn from your guide what else you can discover on your own after this tour.
