Abstrakt
The increase in the global population – observed since the end of eighteenth century and connected to industrialization – has had a great impact on the urban structure of many European towns and cities. Today, most of the industrial production has moved overseas, especially to Asia. Some of the industrial districts – many of them cities which were developed during the last two centuries on the basis of industrial growth – have been left abandoned, unwanted, and without any prospects for growth. The unused post-industrial structure usually presents no artistic or historic value, but some of the old factories and other constructions can be recognized as valuable heritage; this creates the local identity and can help to rebuild the “brand of the cities”. Numerous revitalization programs for such areas have been introduced throughout Europe over the last several decades. Within this paper, the author will present good examples of post-industrial buildings and complexes converted into cultural functions in western European cities, which could be used as reference points for similar projects and introduced into Polish towns.
