Overview

  • Those were the days when Kraków’s veins were running with coal and steel and the glorious, royal past of the city didn’t matter anymore. The world was on the eve of the Cold War and Nowa Huta, communist district of Kraków, was built to fight and resist it.
    Visit with us Nowa Huta, one of the two still existing ideal communist cities in the world and get a chance to:
    see the monumental headquarters of the steel plant and communist party offices
    enter original bomb shelters and command centre from the 1950s, where everything remained untouched as a testimony to the times of the Cold War
    see the representative part of Nowa Huta – monumental Central Square and the Avenue of Roses,
    visit the housing units designed to create new socialist inhabitants and a new model of life
    enter the 'Ark of Lord' church, a symbol of spiritual resistance of Catholic workers against the communist party will and finally have a communist-style snack in the original period interiors.
