Chemnitz has been twinned with the Polish city of Łódz since 1974. In particular, it promotes youth and sports exchanges as well as cooperation on a cultural level. A delegation from the twin city is visiting Chemnitz to mark the Chemnitz Peace Day on 5 March.
It has now become a tradition that a tram in Chemnitz is christened with the name of one of the twin cities. The "Łódz" will be the tenth tram of this kind.
