Beschrijving

Explore the multicultural UNESCO Kazimierz district with a local, experienced city guide. Discover dozens of synagogues, hidden courtyards and moving history in Krakow.
The guided tour is conducted by a certified, local city guide with many years of experience – an expert who combines in-depth knowledge with the ability to convey it in a clear, exciting, and touching way. Experience an impressive guided tour of Kazimierz, Krakow's Jewish quarter, which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the historic town center. For centuries, Christians and Jews lived side by side here, making Kazimierz a place with a unique character.

Your city guide will show you the traces of this rich past, which has remained alive to this day despite the tragic events of the 20th century. During the walking tour, you will visit several preserved synagogues, stroll through narrow streets, and discover hidden courtyards – including the famous courtyard ensemble where Steven Spielberg filmed one of the key scenes from Schindler's List. You will learn more about Jewish customs, symbolism, and stories that paint a picture of a world that was once meant to be wiped out. The guided tour gives you a deep understanding of the history of tragedy, survival and the present-day rebirth of Jewish culture in Krakow.

To finish, the tour takes you across the Vistula River to Podgórze, the former ghetto. Here you will visit Ghetto Heroes Square, the historic "Eagle" pharmacy, and see the remains of the ghetto wall – very close to Oskar Schindler's former enamel factory, which also served as a filming location. The guided tour ends at a central location, so you can continue exploring Krakow on your own.
