Overview

The Oskar Schindler's Museum in Krakow is a popular destination for tourists, thanks in part to its portrayal in the Oscar-winning film "Schindler's List" by Steven Spielberg. Its unique and modern exhibition offers a poignant insight into the tragic events of Krakow during World War II, showcasing the story of Schindler, a German entrepreneur who saved numerous Jews during the war.

Just 10 km from Krakow lies Wieliczka, a quaint town renowned for housing one of Europe's largest ancient salt mines, with a history spanning 700 years. Descending to a depth of 340 meters, the mine boasts an extensive network of tunnels stretching over 245 kilometers.

Visitors can embark on a tourist route spanning more than 3 km, which encompasses over 20 halls, including the awe-inspiring St. Kinga's Church, dedicated to the patroness of miners. This underground church is adorned with intricate salt sculptures, chandeliers, and carvings, creating a truly mesmerizing sight.

The Ghetto Heroes Square

The Ghetto Heroes Square is a square in the Podgórze district of Krakow. In the years 1941–1943 it was within the ghetto. It was a place of concentration of the Jewish population before transport to concentration camps. Currently, there is an unusual monument in this place - several dozen cast-iron chairs standing individually in the square. They symbolize property and belongings of Krakow Jews scattered on the streets after the liquidation of the ghetto.
