origin of name
In order to understand why a cinema in the Russian outback is called the Polish word, which in Russian means “boat” or “boat”, we will take a short excursion during the Soviet Union. At that time, many Russian settlements of regional and district significance acquired twin cities from the countries of the socialist camp. The Lodz-Ivanovo bunch is an example of such international friendship. The Russian “Manchester” and the Polish Lodz were related by the fact that both cities are centers of the textile industry in their homeland. As a sign of friendship between them, a new large cinema center was built in Ivanovo, which was named after the twin city. In turn, the Polish brothers also acquired a cinema named "Ivanovo".
History

The project for those years was truly advanced. Few, even the largest cities of the USSR, could boast of such cultural institutions. Construction was carried out at an accelerated pace for three years. A place for a cinema center was allocated in the very center of Ivanov, on Lezhnevskaya Street. There he stands to this day.
According to the plan, the new cinema was supposed to simultaneously accommodate 850 spectators. The building also provided for a large lobby and a modern ventilation and heating system.
