Szyja Światłowski's villa, Early 20th-century wooden villa in Górniak, Poland.

The two-story wooden residence features twin towers with pointed roofs, extensive terraces, and glass-enclosed verandas incorporating Art Nouveau architectural elements.

Jewish industrialist Szaja Światłowski purchased this villa in 1939 for his wife Klara, who needed a retreat due to tuberculosis treatment.

The villa currently functions as part of the Central Museum of Textile Industry in Łódź, opening its doors to visitors in September 2022.

Following complete renovation, the structure was transferred from its original location at Scaleniowa Street 18 to the Łódź Urban Culture Park.

The building served as a filming location for the 2008 American movie 'House' and the 2015 Polish historical film 'Hiszpanka'.
