Overview

  • Step back in time and uncover the hidden stories of Krakow’s Podgórze district with our unforgettable World War II-themed walking tour. This moving journey will take you through one of the most historically significant and emotionally charged areas of the city—once the heart of the Jewish Ghetto during Nazi occupation. Learn about the resilience, suffering, and survival of the people who lived through one of history's darkest chapters.

    Our tour begins in the Podgórze district, where you will explore the area that bore witness to the horrors of war and the persecution of Krakow’s Jewish population. Walk the streets that once made up the Krakow Ghetto, and see what remains of the original ghetto walls—powerful symbols of the isolation and tragedy that took place within them.

    This tour combines education, remembrance, and exploration, offering a deep understanding of the human stories behind the history. Tips are accepted and appreciated.
