Herbst Palace Museum
Muzeum Pałac Herbsta
The neo-Renaissance palace of Scheibler’s son-in-law Herbst, a faithfully restored residence of an industrial family, with an art gallery attached.
The Herbst Palace was built in 1875 as the home of Matylda, daughter of Scheibler, and her husband Edward Herbst. It sits beside the Księży Młyn industrial district and is now a branch of the Łódź Museum of Art. Inside, the living room, ballroom, conservatory and bedrooms have been restored to their late-19th-century appearance, showing the daily life of industrial capitalists. The courtyard has a carriage house and a small garden. Admission is about 15 złoty. It is closed on Mondays and can be combined with a visit to Księży Młyn.
