    My great great grandparents were from Bolimow (Lodz), Żyrardów, (village in between Lodz and Warsaw) and Poznan so I like all of them equally.

    Nice! Especially Lodz was a major Jewish city (in 1931 - 202,497 Jews out of 604,629 inhabitants, higher % than in Warsaw):



    Do you know "Ziemia Obiecana" ("Promised Land"), a novel by W. Reymont and a movie by A. Wajda? It is about 1800s Lodz:

    Set in the industrial city of Łódź, The Promised Land tells the story of a Pole, a German, and a Jew struggling to build a factory in the raw world of 19th-century capitalism.
    If I were to choose one city where we should invite Jews to revive a Jewish community, I would most likely pick Lodz.

    I picked Krakow, but Poznan is also interesting, it is a twin city with mine.
