Krakow: Jewish Ghetto Guided Tour

    1 hour

    Very easy

    Take a look at where the Jewish people lived during the Nazi occupation of Krakow. Although there is little left of the past here, it is a symbolic place, a metaphysical place, a place preserved in the memory of many


    The streets of Jewisz Ghetto and Podgórze district still keep evidence of those terrible events. You will see a part of the undestroyed wall around the ghetto, houses where thousands of displaced Jews used to live, the pharmacy "Under the Eagle", a monument with 68 chairs in the Heroes' Square in the ghetto.
