Free Tour of the Jewish Ghetto of Krakow

Krakow is one of the European cities that most deeply experienced the consequences of the Holocaust during the Nazi occupation. In the old ghetto, the Nazis confined the Jewish population under extreme conditions, forever marking the city's history. Today, this space is preserved as one of the most important and best-preserved examples of a ghetto in Europe, becoming a key place to understand one of the darkest stages of the 20th century.
