City hall in Łódź

The City Hall of Łódź is a classical administrative building located at Plac Wolności 1 in the Katedralna district, constructed from brick with classical architectural features. Architect Bonifacy Witkowski designed it with clean lines and proportioned facades characteristic of the classical style.

The building was constructed in the late 1800s during Łódź's rapid growth as an industrial city and major manufacturing center. Its creation marked the city's rising importance and the need for a modern administrative headquarters.

The building remains the heart of municipal government and reflects the classical style that shaped Łódź during its growth period. The square around it continues to serve as a gathering place where locals pass through daily.

The City Hall sits at the center of Plac Wolności and is easy to reach on foot from most of the city center. The location offers good views of the square in front, where visitors can pause and take in the surroundings.

The building functions as an active government center while serving as a monument, showing how historical places continue to work in modern cities. Visitors often overlook that real administrators work there making decisions that shape the city's daily operations.
