What to expect

Explore the Jewish heritage in Krakow during this guided tour. See the old synagogues, art galleries and boho cafés in Kazimierz district and hear all about the heroic life of Oscar Schindler.

Excursion on the Jewish Kazimierz (UNESCO monument) is devoted to history and traditions of the Jewish people, since XIV century up to now: the closed life of the first settlements, assimilation of XIX century, tragic death during the Second World War. Today, Kazimierz is one of the most fashionable areas in Krakow, where synagogues still stand, old cemeteries, cafes and shops have been preserved.

The Schindler's museum is very popular among tourists. The tragic events that took place in Krakow during the Second World War are shown in Stephen Spielberg's oscar-winning film "Schindler's List", shot in this exact place. The museum's atypical and modern exhibition will leave no one indifferent. Learn the story of a German entrepreneur who led many Jews through the war.
