Why choose this Warsaw tour ?
Before the outbreak of the World War II, Poland was inhabited by one of the largest Jewish diasporas in Europe, with a total of about 3.5 million of Jews. They came to Krakow in the 11th century and when the World War II broke out they constituted over 25% of the city’s population. Few managed to survive the Nazi extermination, but their religious and cultural achievements can still be admired in Kazimierz, one of the Krakow’s districts, where the Jewish quarter was located.
We will start visiting Krakow from the historic Old Town. We will see the delightful main square, and slowly go to the Wawel Hill to see the medieval castle towering over Krakow. From there, we will go to Kazimierz to see the Jewish heritage. There we will have lunch in one of the many cozy cafes. Finally, we will visit the museum located in the former factory of Oskar Schindler, who during the war saved over 1,000 people from being sent to extermination camps.
