Description
Stroll through the streets of Krakow's Jewish Ghetto and Podgórze district on a 1-hour guided walking tour.
Revisit the history of World War II by walking in the Poguzhe district, the site of a Jewish Ghetto. 75 years after the end of the war, the district still keeps this heritage alive. The area serves to remind visitors of the horrors of war and the need to prevent such events from ever taking place again.
Visit the famous Plac Bohaterów Getta (Ghetto Heroes Square), where Jewish inhabitants of Krakow were identified and sent off to concentration camps. See a fragment of the original ghetto wall, which now serves as a monument and place of pilgrimage for many Jewish people visiting from abroad.
