Twórcy Łodzi Przemysłowej, Industrial memorial in Piotrkowska Street, Łódź, Poland.
Twórcy Łodzi Przemysłowej is a bronze memorial on Piotrkowska Street showing three men seated at a table. The fourth seat at the table remains empty, inviting visitors to sit down with them.
The memorial was installed in 2002 and honors Karol Scheibler, Izrael Poznanski, and Henryk Grohman. These three men transformed Łódź from a small place into a major textile production center during the 1800s.
The bronze figures wear clothing from the 1800s and represent three entrepreneurs who shaped the city. You encounter them on the street as if they have been sitting there for a long time, waiting for company.
The memorial sits on Piotrkowska Street at number 30/32, right next to the city's Tourist Information Center. You find it easily while walking along this main street that runs through the city center.
What makes this place special is that the empty chair is not just symbolic but genuinely invites you to sit. Many people use this opportunity to have their photo taken while sitting beside the industrialists.
