Full description
Explore the Jewish neighborhood of Kazimierz, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Learn about the history of the district from the 14th century up until today: the closed life of the first settlements, assimilation during the 19th century, and the tragedies of the Second World War.
See where traditional Jewish institutions such as synagogues and old cemeteries still stand. Get a feel for the beatnik vibe of the district today, with its fashionable shops and cafes.
Then, visit the unique and modern exhibition at Schindler's Factory Museum. Gain a deeper knowledge of the tragic events that took place in Krakow during the Second World War.
