At its end, you’ll find the entrance to the Nowa Huta steelworks compound. Once you see the prominent sign Huta im. T. Sendzimira, you’ll know you’re at the right place. At the gates of the steelworks are two large iconic administration buildings. The building on the left is the meeting point and the first site on the tour.
