Overview

Embark on a spine-chilling journey through Kazimierz, Krakow’s mysterious district, where dark tales of brutal crimes and dangerous figures from the 20th century still haunt the streets.

Walk through Szeroka Street, where Kot’s brutal murders in the 1960s targeted women and children, and visit Józefa Street, the site of his most notorious killings. Explore Kazimierz’s criminal history, the impact of these figures on the area, and the development of criminology in Krakow.
