Jewish Square & Former Ghetto Krakow: Small-Group Morning Guided Tour

About This Experience

Embark on a journey through time with the Krakow Jewish Quarter Guided Walking Tour. Once a vibrant Jewish district, Kazimierz bore witness to a flourishing Jewish culture before World War II. However, this area, as well as the neighboring Podgórze district, became a scene of devastation by the Nazis, forcing most of the remaining Jewish population to flee following the war. But since the late 1980s, Kazimierz's Jewish heritage has been brought back to life. The district's progress has been aided by the success of the Spielberg film, Schindler's List, which was set in this area and won multiple Academy Awards. On the Krakow Jewish Quarter Guided Walking Tour, visitors can experience the history of this interesting district firsthand. Led by an experienced guide, they will stroll through Kazimierz's charming streets and alleyways, discovering the remnants of the rich Jewish culture that once thrived here.
