19.00 Conference Dinner at Karol Scheibler’s residence (1855)



The building was erected in 1855 as a plain, one floor house. Its final, presentable appearance resulted from a reconstruction taking place from 1884 to 1886, designed by Edward Lilpop. It used to belong to Karol Scheibler, the greatest Łódź industrialist. The Neo-Renaissance façade stands in contrast to the richness of the eclectic interior. First floor rooms (a mirror room, a dining room, the owner's study) are representative in their character. The second floor used to house living rooms and a terrace. There was a green square behind the house. Today the palace houses the Cinematography Museum.
