Guided Walking Tour of the Jewish Ghetto in Krakow
Overview
During World War II, the Podgórze district housed a Jewish ghetto, and even today, 75 years after the war's end, traces of those events remain. These reminders serve as poignant symbols, urging current inhabitants to remember the horrors of war and strive to prevent such atrocities in the future. You'll visit the renowned Ghetto Heroes' Square, where Jews were selected for transport to concentration camps, and witness a section of the original ghetto wall, now a solemn monument and pilgrimage site for many Jews. The district still bears witness to the lives of thousands of displaced Jews in its houses, including the historic pharmacy "Under the Eagle." Exploring these streets offers a captivating journey through their rich and profound history.
