The exhibition, “Krakow under Nazi Occupation 1939–1945”, tells the story of how war transformed daily life for both Jewish and non-Jewish residents. Moving through immersive rooms, original documents, and photographs, you’ll see how ordinary people faced extraordinary times. Your guide adapts the pace and focus to your interests — whether you want to understand the historical context, the personal stories of survivors, or the broader narrative of occupation and resistance. Within this broader story, you’ll also discover how Oskar Schindler used his factory to save over a thousand Jewish workers — an act of courage remembered worldwide.

About Krakow
Kraków, Poland's royal former capital, has a beautifully preserved medieval old town, crowned by Wawel Castle above the Vistula River.
The Main Market Square, one of the largest medieval squares in Europe, is lined with burghers' houses and centred on the arcaded Cloth Hall. St Mary's Basilica rises at one corner, its carved wooden altarpiece a Gothic masterpiece, and a trumpet call sounds from its tower through the day and night.
Top-ranked sights in Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum, Rynek Glowny (Main Market Square), Wieliczka Salt Mine (Kopalnia Soli).
