Park im. 1 Maja, Stawy Stefańskiego is a recreational facility There is a pond with an area of 11.4 ha in the park, which is an extension of the Ner riverbed. The pond was once privately owned and part of the Ruda farm. There was a manor house nearby. After World War I, the pond was bought by a private entrepreneur, Stefański. As a result of exploitative management, most of the animals living here died out or left the area. Year by year, the pollution of the pond increased and it required thorough cleaning. This was later done by the occupiers. After the end of World War II, Ruda Pabianicka found itself within the city limits of Łódź, and the park became the subject of interest of the city authorities. A few years after the war, it was decided to build a recreation center in Ruda Pabianicka. Part of the area on the western side was designated for the park. Roads were built, trees and shrubs were planted. In 1949, construction of a swimming pool began. The pond was deepened, and a sleigh hill was built from the excavated sand, while the stables from the former farm were transformed into changing rooms for guests spending time by the water. A second, smaller pond was also created, acting as a settling pond and stocked with fish. The work was completed in 1951. A bituminous surface was laid in the park alleys, restaurants and other buildings were renovated. The pond overlaps the riverbed of the Ner, stretches for 2.5 km and is up to 165 m wide, with a depth of 1 m to 4 m.

It is a branch of the Museum of Art in Łódź located in the neo-Renaissance villa of Edward Herbst in Łódź. The branch presents the original 19th-century palace interiors and a collection of old art in the coach house building. After the war, the villa complex was used by various state institutions. Many years of neglect and improper use led to the devastation of the buildings. The residence of the Herbst family was taken over by the Museum of Art in Łódź in 1976. For almost fourteen years, a general renovation combined with the reconstruction of the interiors and other conservation procedures lasted. In 1990, thanks to the efforts of the then director of the Museum, Ryszard Stanisławski, the palace was officially opened to visitors as a branch of the Museum of Art in Łódź. At the same time, in the same year, the branch was honored with the Europa Nostra medal. It was the first medal awarded to a facility in Poland. In 2012, the Gallery of Old Art was created on the premises of the Herbst complex in the building of the former coach house.
