And in these newly created spaces, unique collections of ancient art from the collection of the Muzeum Sztuki in Łódź are presented.

Modernization of the Carriage House

Intensive modernization works are underway in the Carriage House on the premises of the Herbst Palace, where a permanent exhibition of old art will be opened in spring 2012. The Carriage House rooms will be adapted for exhibition functions - exhibition rooms will be located on the ground floor; some of the attics will be adapted for office purposes.

Evening of illumination - commencement of revitalization works in the Palace

On July 3, 2011, the historic interior of the Palace could be visited for the last time before the revitalization began. A spectacular light and sound show was also prepared especially for this day, which will certainly remain in the memory of the numerous visitors gathered that evening for a long time.
