Beautiful place with great architecture, definitely worth to visit. Upstairs part of the museum which family lived has historical items that belongs to family in beautiful rooms and halls. Also there is part for Arthur Rubinstein who was born in Lodz. You can see his stuff, photos, clothes etc. and some prizes about or belong him including Academy, Grammy and Emmy Awards etc. Downstairs is like another museum. This part of the museum is about history of the city rather than the family. Some historical stuff that are used by factories or people in Lodz are on display in downstairs part of museum. Also small but nice garden of the palace is reopen and you can visit there. Visiting whole museum takes 2-3 hours but probably the best place to visit in the city and worth it.

This museum is just the right size - i.e. small - and contains a rather random mix of relics of the house and its past glory as the Poznanski's palace, information and relics of former illustrious Lodz residents, and historical artefacts. All very interesting and beautifully presented. If you've seen Wajda's 'The Promised Land', this is a must, as are the mill buildings adjacent.

We came to this museum mostly to see the Jan Karski room containing artifacts and honors given to this WWII Polish underground hero. That was wonderful, but the rest of the museum (formerly a very beautiful mansion) was very impressive as well. The location near Andel's Hotel and the Manufacktura shopping district is perfect as well.

The only English was in the rooms devoted to Arthur Rubinstein. A beautiful stately dining room. I felt it was more a museum about the Poznanski family rather than the city. The museum at the manufaktura about the textile industry gave more info about the city and its growth, what life was like for people other than the Poznanski family.

We visited the Poznanski Palace today and for 12 pln, we enjoyed a tour upstairs of the Palacial grounds where the family lived.
Downstairs was a history of Łódź, small but very interesting.
Followed by a room of art which was good too.
Staff very helpful all the way round, we spent about an hour here.
Well worth the entrance fee.

What an amazing beautiful piece of architecture. The exterior renovations are almost done (garden was still closed for us) and there is still more work to be done on main level - but what a treat that it was reopened when we were visiting. You can tour the rooms of where Karol Poznanski lived with his family - bed chambers, dressing rooms, drawing rooms etc and witness the life of a man who was extremely pivotal to the industrial rise of Łódź. A Jewish magnate, Poznanski would eventually see his empire fall prey to the Nazis. But this ‘home’ - really a Palace - is a great example of what Łódź used to be and how much money there was in the city at one time when it was a huge economic hub for Poland and Europe (late 19th early 20th century) and its rapid growth and industrialization. There is *also* a great museum in the basement that shows you up close and personal what life was like in Łódź - when Polish, German and Jewish families lived side by side until the situation became a nightmare. Worth visiting! A little disorganized and ramshackle but they are getting it together and pouring massive funds into restoring architectural gems throughout Łódź- it’s artsy, gritty and very cool to visit.

This museum is located adjacent to Manufaktura and on the way to the city. It is also on the edge of the Litzmannstadt Ghetto, so a good place to start a day's trail. You have to pay for entry, and the art gallery section is extra. They occasionally host concerts in the lovely halls. Some of the history of the Poznanski family is also on display. The bedrooms are now set up to commemorate great former residents of Lodz like the pianist Rubinstein. Worth a quick visit, and the staff are pleasant.

This "palace" was built by a wealthy Jewish industrialist named Poznanski in the early 20th century. Fortunately, his children lost his fortune and moved to Argentina - and were saved from being murdered in the Holocaust.
The building is quite impressive - even elegant. There is an amalgam of styles: Victorian, Art Nouveau, romantic, classical, etc. It has its own concert hall as well. There are several rooms dedicated to Artur Rubenstein. It is well worth visiting.

Be aware of the closing time at 4pm in the open days.

The dinning rooms, theatre, game rooms and etc. inside this gigantic building are all impressive, but the most attractive part of this palace lies outside the building - the backyard lawn.

It is not the grass itself, but the surrounding buildings and their structures creates a picturesque scenery.

This palace is often called "Lodz's Louvre" and I think it is a fitting name. The rooms are indeed magnificent. Museum hosts exhibition about Lodz history, some paiting and soem temporary exhibistions. There is also a garden behind a palace.
