Szancer's mill in Tarnów

The brick and wooden complex includes a grain mill, cereal factory, granary, and industrial laboratory at the intersection of Kołłątaja and Starodąbrowska Streets.

Henryk Szancer established this steam-powered mill in 1846, making it one of the most advanced industrial facilities in the Galicia region of Poland.

The mill represents Jewish entrepreneurship in Tarnów, as the Szancer family contributed to regional industrial development through multiple mill establishments.

The complex stands at ul. Kołątaja 11 in Tarnów and forms part of the Jewish Cultural Trail, offering opportunities for photography and historical exploration.

The structure remains the only preserved mill building from pre-war Tarnów, with plans for transformation into a hotel with cultural event spaces.
