Overview

There was a time when one third of Warsaw's inhabitants considered themselves Jewish. A time when Warsaw was home to the biggest Jewish population in Europe.

World War II brought all of that to a devastating end.

Take a journey down the almost 1000-year-old Jewish history of Poland and Warsaw, from their arrival, their expansion, their tragic and heroic struggle, and their remerging, quiet renaissance.

Sign up for this walking tour if you would like to find out how and why the Jews settled in Poland, discover the few remaining sites that still remind us about the once thriving Jewish presence in the city, hear the heart-breaking, first-hand accounts of Jews who survived life in the ghetto, understand why Jews incited the Jewish Uprising in 1943 even though they knew they would fail, learn about the current situation of the Jewish community in Warsaw.

Don't just visit Warsaw, discover it!
