Kazimierz
Kazimierz Jewish Quarter
Enter Kazimierz, one of Kraków’s most evocative neighborhoods. Once a vibrant center of Jewish life, it now reflects centuries of faith, tradition, and close-knit community. Walk its atmospheric streets, pass historic synagogues, and discover a place where Jewish and Christian cultures developed side by side.
The tour begins on Szeroka Street, the historic heart of Kazimierz, framed by synagogues and townhouses dating back to the 16th–18th centuries. You will see the Old Synagogue, the oldest preserved synagogue in Poland, today a museum of Jewish history. The route continues past the Remuh Synagogue and Cemetery, one of the most important Jewish religious sites in the country. You will also pass the Kupa Synagogue, once serving the poorest residents, and the Tempel Synagogue, now an active center of cultural life.
This walking tour captures the spirit of Kazimierz — a district where traces of everyday life, prayer, and resilience are still present.

Muzeum Krakowa, oddzial Fabryka Emalia Oskara Schindlera
Visit Schindler’s Enamel Factory, today one of Kraków’s most visited and moving museums, and step into the story of a man whose actions made history. With a licensed expert guide, you’ll explore the acclaimed exhibition “Kraków under Nazi Occupation 1939–1945” through the lens of Oskar Schindler’s extraordinary life.
This is the place where Schindler employed Jewish workers and used his position, influence, and resources to protect them from deportation. More than a thousand men and women survived thanks to his courage and determination. As you walk through the exibition, your guide will bring to life the stories of those he saved, often called “Schindlerjuden,” whose testimony continues to resonate across generations.
Photographs, personal objects, and reconstructed streets show the fear, uncertainty, and daily struggles faced by the city’s inhabitants. Within this backdrop of oppression, Schindler’s story emerges as one of humanity and hope.
