Krakow: Former Jewish Ghetto & Plaszow CC Guided Tour

You will meet your guide in the vicinity of Schindler's Factory in Krakow's Podgórze district. The local streets and alleys, despite the fact that they changed their face a long time ago, still hide relics of the terrible years of the war, when the Nazis crowded thousands of people into a small area of the ghetto, and then transported them to concentration camps to die faithfully. You will see fragments of the ghetto wall, the famous square with a monument in the shape of chairs, offices and the building of the pharmacy under the eagle - a symbol of a flame of hope. Stories of people and events will come to life again thanks to the guide's stories.

Then we will go by tram to Płaszów, where there was a Nazi concentration camp in the southern suburbs of Krakow on the site of old Jewish cemeteries. Płaszów supplied labor to several military factories and a quarry, and was also the site of the extermination of Jews deported from the Kraków ghetto. Life in the camp was shown in the famous film Schindler's List (1993) about the life of Oskar Schindler.

Meeting point: ul. Lipowa 4 (in front of the entrance to the Schindler's Factory Museum)
