Juliusz Heinzl Palace, which houses the Łódź City Hall, is a palace of Juliusz Heinzl, located at 104 Piotrkowska Street in Łódź.

It is the first of the three residences of Heinzel, its construction was completed in 1882 by Hilary Majewski and Otto Gehlig.[1] The palace was situated next to a wool products factory, in the street's regulatory line, right in front of the factory buildings, extending deep into the property. It was built in eclectic style with predominance of elements referring to the Berlin Renaissance. The palace consisted of a three-storey main body and lower side wings, and two pavilions ended with towers, separated from the palace by a decorative grating. Over the years, it has undergone modifications and reconstructions.[2]

The first floor of the front facade of the main body is decorated with symmetrically placed bay windows on the sides, decorated with a baluster railing. Below the cordon cornice there is a frieze with cartouche-shaped panels and emblems of industry and trade. The façade is crowned with a sculptural figural composition, depicting allegories of Freedom, Industry, and Trade.[1]

In the 21st century, the palace, integrated with factory buildings, was converted into offices, serves as the seat of the Provincial Office and the City of Łódź.[2] From July 29, 1998, the bugle call of Łódź is played every day from the balcony of the palace at noon.[3]

In 1999, a monument to Julian Tuwim by Wojciech Gryniewicz was unveiled in front of the palace.[4] The building is entered in the register of monuments under the number A/41 (January 20, 1971).[5]
