Kazimierz - the oldest district of Krakow, once an independent city, located behind the no longer existing branch of the Vistula River. A place of coexistence and interpenetration of two cultures - Christian and Jewish. On the route of the tour, see over 20 monuments, visit the beautiful, picturesque streets of Kazimierz and learn about the history of its inhabitants. It is one of the main places on the map of Krakow, one of the most important attractions of the city, it is here that the cultural life of contemporary residents and tourists takes place.

The streets of the former Jewish ghetto, which existed in Podgórze during the war, still bear traces of those terrible events. See a fragment of the undamaged wall around the ghetto, houses where thousands of displaced Jews lived, the historic pharmacy "Pod Orłem" and the monument with many chairs at the Ghetto Heroes Square.

Finally, enter the Schindler's Factory Museum - one of the most popular museums in Krakow. Although it is related to the name of a German entrepreneur who saved many Jews by employing them in his elmalia factory, the main topic of visiting the museum is the fate of Krakow and its inhabitants during the Nazi occupation. You will visit this amazing interactive exhibition that will not leave anyone indifferent, with an experienced guide.
