Krakow Jewish Quarter Walking Tour with Schindler’s Factory Entry
Study the history of WWII across Polish neighborhoods with an expert guide and pre-reserved tickets
5 h
Max 25 Guests
In 1939, Kraków's Jewish community of nearly 70,000 lived, prayed, and worked in Kazimierz, just south of the Old Town. By 1945, almost all of them were gone, and this 5-hour walk shows what occupation left behind. A licensed guide leads you through Kazimierz's prayer houses and courtyards, then to Schindler's Factory Museum with pre-reserved entry. Afterward, cross into Podgórze to see the former Jewish Ghetto. A heart-wrenching story of loss, resilience, and remembrance.

Itinerary
Your tour begins at the Old Synagogue
Meet your licensed local guide on the Old Synagogue steps in Kazimierz, Kraków. Get a quick overview of the route and the district’s Jewish history, then set off along the cobbled streets.
Explore Kazimierz’s Jewish Quarter
Follow your guide down streets shaped by centuries of daily life, faith, and trade, passing historic synagogues and courtyard houses. Along the way, your guide explains how the district changed before, during, and after WWII.
Visit Schindler’s Factory Museum
Pass the long ticket lines with pre-reserved entry tickets and enter the museum’s immersive “Kraków under Nazi Occupation 1939–1945” exhibition. Your guide ties artifacts and reconstructed rooms to Schindler’s story and the city’s ordeal.
Walk the former Jewish Ghetto in Podgórze
Continue into Podgórze to see remaining ghetto wall fragments and learn how the area was sealed and controlled. Then cross Ghetto Heroes Square, where empty metal chairs memorialize the deportations.
Your tour ends at Apteka pod Orlem
Finish at Under the Eagle Pharmacy at Plac Bohaterów Getta 18, a place tied to acts of help and moral choice. Leave with a clear, place-based understanding of Kraków’s wartime, Jewish Quarter, history.
