Fabryka Garbarska Temler i Szwede w Warszawie, Industrial heritage monument in Wola district, Warsaw, Poland.
The Fabryka Garbarska Temler i Szwede was a leather processing factory in Warsaw with multiple brick buildings on Okopowa Street. The complex used traditional methods for tanning and processing leather in this industrial district.
The factory was founded in 1806 by Jan Gottfried Temler, who arrived in Warsaw with Napoleonic forces. It grew into one of the largest tanning facilities in the Polish Kingdom and drove the region's industrialization.
The factory shows how German and Polish entrepreneurs worked together in the 1800s and shaped Warsaw's industrial landscape. The brick buildings still display the marks of this German-Polish business cooperation today.
The complex is located at Okopowa Street 78 in Wola's industrial district and is registered as a monument. Visitors should note that the buildings can be viewed from the outside due to their abandoned state.
The factory won multiple awards at international industrial exhibitions for its high-quality leather products. Raw materials arrived from different regions around the world, making it an important trade hub.
