Step into a meaningful walk through Jewish Warsaw and its history during World War II. This walk will take you into the beginnings of Jewish life in Warsaw and into the story of the Warsaw Ghetto.
Step into a meaningful walk through Jewish Warsaw and its history during World War II. Before the war, the city was home to the largest Jewish community in Europe, but this world was brutally destroyed under Nazi occupation. This walk will take you deep into the very beginnings of Jewish life in Warsaw and later into the story of the Warsaw Ghetto – its creation, daily life, and liquidation.
- At Grzybowski Square, you will be introduced to the history of the Jewish presence and the vibrant pre-war life of the city.
- Moving forward, you will see the Nożyk Synagogue – the only synagogue in Warsaw that survived the war.
- Along the way, you will discover stories of courage – silent heroes like Janusz Korczak and the staff of the Bersohn and Bauman Children's Hospital.
- You will visit the Ghetto Walls and Waliców Street, which remain in today’s city as silent witnesses, where you will learn about the establishment of the Jewish Ghetto and everyday life within it.
- We will end the tour at the site of the wooden footbridge on Chłodna Street, a haunting symbol of separation between the small and large ghettos and between two worlds – Jewish and non-Jewish. Here, you will uncover the story of the “Great Action” of 1942 and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
Join me for this walk – a journey through the darkest chapter of Warsaw’s history, a chapter that erased a community and left behind just the memories.
