Fabryka Pełna Życia

Fabryka Pełna Życia is a former industrial complex that now houses offices, exhibition spaces, and event halls across multiple buildings. The site features modern systems including solar panels and heat pumps that support its contemporary functions.

The site originated in the 1870s as a locksmith workshop and later became the Dąbrowa Ponar-Defum Machine Tool Factory. The factory operated continuously until 2015, when the transformation into a cultural and community space began.

The renovated halls host concerts, theater performances, and conferences that bring artistic life to the region. Visitors encounter a mixed crowd of different ages gathered for events and gatherings.

The site is accessible to visitors with varying mobility levels, offering barrier-free entrances and pathways throughout the buildings. The best time to visit is during scheduled events or exhibitions, which activate the space and create a livelier atmosphere.

One section of the complex is specifically designed for bringing together older people and younger generations in shared activities. These intergenerational spaces allow seniors to participate in community projects and share their knowledge with others.
