What you can expect

This tour brings together the three most important places in Jewish history in Krakow.

Visit the historic centre for Poland's Jews on a tour of Kazimierz, the district where “Schindler's List” was filmed. Learn about the history of the area and retrace the steps of Oskar Schindler, an ethnic German industrialist who saved Jews from labour camps by employing them in his factory.

The south-eastern district of Krakow, Kazimierz, named after the king who invited Jews to Poland in the 14th century. Follow your guide as you wander through the labyrinthine streets on your way to the Old Synagogue, the oldest still standing in Poland.

Learn about how the area was used for the filming of “Schindler’s List” in 1993, before entering the Schindler Factory Museum. Housed in the former enamel factory of Oskar Schindler, the museum now features exhibits that tell the wartime storey of the city, with recreations of a tram carriage, a train station, and a crowded ghetto apartment within the factory's walls.

The former Jewish ghetto will tell you many stories and show you how it lived during the Nazi occupation in Krakow.You will see a part of the undestroyed wall around the ghetto, houses where thousands of displaced Jews used to live, the pharmacy “Under the Eagle”, a monument with 68 chairs in the Heroes' Square in the ghetto.
