About
An attraction for tourists, a hangout for Łodz residents, heaven for gourmets and renowned brand lovers, a place full of life and positive energy - Manufaktura has very quickly become the city’s flagship, as recognisable as Piotrkowska Street. Today it is hard to picture Łodz without Manufaktura. With no beach in the summer, no kermis and ice rink in the winter, no concerts in the market square or tasty evenings in local restaurants. Manufaktura means: museums, cinema, theatre, a quarter of a thousand boutiques and stores, playgrounds for the youngest, fitness club, a few dozens restaurants and cafes. But its centre is the over 3 ha large Łodz Women Textile Workers Market Square, which serves as a friendly public space. Here cultural and entertainment events are organised, attracting both residents and tourists. Here the Europe’s longest fountain illuminates the darkness with colours and envelops superbly designed recreational areas in its murmur.

    Everything you need and more
    The old textile mill factory's have been entirely renovated and its red brick faced, and outdoor fountains offer so many photo opportunities day or at night. There are some great restaurants and l highly recommend a visit to the Decathlon Manufaktura store as l bought a 3 in 1 jacket and other items at a great price and very, please with the service l received. Walking into the shopping mall you are taken back by the size of it at first and then you see the shopping mail information desk. The center offers a large range of clothing stores, boutique stores, cafes, bottle shop and liquor store, a large supermarket, Cinema City and much more definitely worth a visit. The bonus took the tram from main tram station which was nearby my hotel which was cheap and easy to do. After leaving the shopping center and heading back to the hotel l did stop at the nearby doughnut shop Goraca Paczkarnia F-Wiatrak. Freshly made and delicious a great way to end the visit to the Manufaktura.
    Thank you for your review. We are glad that you had a nice time with us :)

    Urban planning masterpiece: a run-down industrial site has been transformed into a thriving urban district
    A masterpiece of urban planning... ... how a run-down industrial site has been turned into a thriving district that the population has adopted as a new city center. I know the area from before 1989. It was a gray, desolate industrial complex with workers of the same kind, and it conveyed an indescribable sadness. And today: the sandblasted brickwork of the formerly gloomy factory buildings glows in a warm red. It is extremely impressive when a visitor walks through the very imposing factory gate and looks out over the spacious area. Don't forget: in many countries - especially Germany - after the end of the war, not only the ruins but also the partially damaged buildings were removed in the cities, and zealous architects and city fathers ensured that the cities today have nothing of what they once were. If we look at PL against this background, it becomes clear that a completely different path was taken here: entire city centers were renovated and reconstructed with the help of historical drawings or other documents. In PL, buildings from the 19th century are now showing off their full splendor, and even former factories show viewers why they were once called "cathedrals of the industrial age." They convey to visitors something of the spirit, the will to change, that once animated this rapidly growing industrial metropolis. A visit here is an invaluable aesthetic pleasure and should definitely not be missed on a visit to Łódź. It should be mentioned in passing that even visitors who are not interested in architecture will get their money's worth here. Numerous restaurants (including a large food stall), activities (in winter: an ice skating rink), museums, plenty of seating and a very spacious shopping mall offer something for every interest. Children in particular will enjoy this place and a visit there can easily last a whole day.
    Thanks for sharing your impression of your visit in Manufaktura! Hope to see you again!

    Lively mall
    This is Lodz's most successful urban redevelopment project. The site of former textile factory, Manufaktura is now a huge shopping mall popular among locals. The blend of old and new is impressive and the mall itself is huge and lively.
    Wow! Thank you so much! <3

    We are facing another very interesting industrial recovery. In this case, inside, we find several shops, restaurants and even some start-ups. It is located along a busy avenue so it is easily accessible by bus.
    Thank you so much! <3

    Here everyone will find something for themselves
    The shopping and leisure complex Manufaktura is located about 3 km from the city center and consists of several buildings . Here you will find more than 200 shops, numerous cozy restaurants and cafes, cinemas. Fans of active or extreme sports will also find enough activities here. The whole area is also very nice: Fountains, green spaces, carousels. Everything but shops is also up on Sunday.

A huge facility in the center of Lodz. You can find everything you need, restaurants, shops, cinema...etc. It is very imaginative that an old factory complex was renovated and this huge plaza is part of it. If you are in Lodz, you must visit the Manufaktura.

Having been here a few times since the opening, it always amazes me how successfully the developers have turned old industrial heritage buildings into something very relevant for today's consumer. A great mix of old and new buildings provide ample space for all the shops you need. Great restaurants too. And always something going on there as well. Any visit to Lodz should include one stop at Manufaktura.

Every time we go to Łódź we go to Manufaktura.
From the restaurants on the outside to the shops available inside it’s a great place.
Always has everything we need, great shops and always friendly staff.
Zara, Hugo Boss, H&M, Vision Express, Reserved to name a few, plus TKMax outside as well as Starbucks.
Nicely decorated at this time of year.
Be warned days leading up to Xmas and the immediate days after the Xmas break can be carnage getting in and out of the complex, but otherwise definitely worth it!

I would rate this as must see sight when visiting Lodz. I would recommend to visit this place during evening time when illumination is on. Place is very nicely renovated old factory area which includes options for eating, drinking, do shopping, gym, ice skating (winter time), art and probably much more. If I understood correctly, there is also longest chain of water fountains in Europe.

Just a regular large European shopping mall. Normal chain stores from clothing to food (kfc, McDonald’s) etc. No crazy prices or discounts and some stuff even rather expensive. Environment was nice.

Worth the visit but don’t expect surprises.

One of the prettiest shopping centers in Poland. A perfect example of the revitalization of an old factory. It should be a must-visit for students of architecture. I definitely recommend visiting this place! Next to it, there is a magnificent palace of the owner of the factory, Mr. Poznański.

...yet I have to admit that both the quality of renovation of the old textile factory and the public space deserve recognition. Lots of outdoor fountains, attractions for children (springboards, enterntainers, a zip-line), cafes as well as gastronomy - with a a value proposal quite different compared to the Piotrkowska OFF. Basically complementary attractions. No wonder it's a rather crowded place.

It is just a shopping center...ok,nice building but that's it...place to go out to eat, to buy...
it is very sad about Lodz,,, it used to be nice there,,, but since 90ties of the XX century thousands people just leave this city, especially young people escape to Warsaw or Wroclaw, Krakow...
