The monumental palace of the Biedermann family is referred to in the literature as the Alfred Biedermann Palace.

The Palace houses the University of Łódź Centre for the Organization of Cultural Events and Conferences (COWKiK).

The venue hosts interdisciplinary cultural projects presented in the form of exhibitions, meetings, lectures, seminars, conferences, and broadly defined educational activities.

It is also home to interfaculty units, research centres, and artistic ensembles, including:

  • Centre for Social Innovation
  • Jerzy Giedroyc Centre
  • Ceraneum
  • Asian Affairs Centre
  • Academic Choir of the University of Łódź

The Palace holds collections documenting the history of the University of Łódź, as well as the lives and achievements of its academic staff and students. It also features a room dedicated to the University’s first Rector, Professor Tadeusz Kotarbiński.

The building is home to the Research Team for the Photographic Collection at the University of Łódź (the collection of Andrzej Różycki, an artist associated since the 1960s with the progressive avant-garde milieu of Łódź, who passed away in 2021).

The former carriage house now accommodates “Gallery 1/5”, which hosts temporary exhibitions.

The monumental residence of the Biedermann family is referred to in academic literature as the Alfred Biedermann Palace.
