The Żnin sugar factory was built in the late 19th century. Up until 2004, it operated producing sugar from beets. As a result of industrial restructuring, it was closed down and the buildings of the complex were ultimately designated for demolition. ARCHE subsequently purchased the complex with the goal of renovating the factory and reviving the valuable, but collapsing buildings, while endeavoring to respect their historical value, the changes made to them over generations, and their aesthetic and technical diversity.
