Markus Silberstein's factory, Cultural heritage building in Katedralna, Poland.
Markus Silberstein's factory is a 19th-century production building in the Katedralna area of Łódź. The structure features the typical industrial design of that era, with brick walls, large windows for natural light, and a layout built for efficient manufacturing.
The factory was built in the late 1800s when Łódź was becoming one of Europe's major manufacturing centers. It was part of the rapid industrial boom that transformed the entire city.
This factory shows how industrial work shaped daily life in the city during the 1800s. Walking through, you can see how workers and the neighborhood depended on places like this.
The building sits near the city center and is easy to reach on foot. You can see the exterior anytime, but check ahead if you want to visit the interior.
The building was designed by Adolf Zeligson, an architect who shaped many of Łódź's factory buildings. His designs still define the look of the whole neighborhood today.
