Many of our alumni remember the building at Narutowicza 60 well — it’s where generations of students studied anatomy. Built between 1894 and 1896, the building originally served as a shelter for the elderly and disabled, operated by the Łódź Christian Charity Society. After World War II, it became part of the Medical Academy in Łódź (now the Medical University of Łódź), and until 2018, it functioned as the Collegium Anatomicum. In October 2018, anatomy classes were moved to a revitalized facility on Żeligowskiego Street. Today, the historic complex at Narutowicza 60 houses various academic and administrative units of the university. Now, this iconic building is entering a new chapter!A comprehensive revitalization is underway, giving the Collegium Anatomicum not only a refreshed look but also a new, socially impactful role. The site will soon host the Center for Health and Social Initiatives and a Multimedia Museum featuring four exhibitions focused on the history of medicine in Łódź, military medicine, and medical innovations. This investment aims to:– Activate and engage the local community– Improve safety and aesthetics in the area near the New Center of Łódź– Preserve the city’s cultural and architectural heritage. Nearly 19 million PLN will be allocated for the project, funded by the Marshal’s Office of the Łódź Voivodeship. “Although anatomy has not been taught in the building for many years, it remains a symbol of academic identity for our university. For a long time, we have been striving to secure funding not merely to restore its former glory, but to prevent its inevitable degradation. Thanks to the funds received, the building will gain a new life, becoming a place for meetings, education, and community integration” says Rector, Prof. Janusz Piekarski.
