Łódź, Księży Młyn
The factory and residential complex on the Jasień River was built in the 19th century by Karol Scheibler, the richest industrialist in Łódź. It was a self-sufficient city within a city modeled on English industrial settlements. There were factory buildings here, e.g. a huge, castle-like spinning mill, warehouses, famuły (workers’ houses), a school, a fire station, two hospitals, a gasworks, a factory club, konsumy (shops), owners’ residences, as well as a railway siding. All this is planned along simple cobbled streets and architecturally coherent.
