Karl Wilhelm Scheibler's palace, Renaissance Revival palace in Stary Widzew, Poland

The four-story palace features ornate architectural elements, including eight pilasters framing the windows and a prominent tower with a pyramid-shaped tent roof.

Constructed between 1844 and 1882, the palace served as residence for textile industrialist Karl Wilhelm Scheibler, who established a major manufacturing complex in Łódź.

The palace interior contains preserved decorative elements from the 19th century, including intricate ceiling moldings and original fireplaces reflecting period craftsmanship.

The palace now functions as part of Lodz University of Technology, housing the Faculty of Organization and Management at Piotrkowska Street 266.

The structure underwent several expansions, including the addition of a winter garden and living room during the 1897 renovation phase.
