Rutt

1. The route passes Ghetto Heroes Square in the Podgórze district, a place closely linked to the history of the Kraków Ghetto. Once neglected after the war, the square was redesigned in 2005 as a memorial space. Today, dozens of large metal chairs symbolize forced departures and absence, forming a powerful and widely recognized tribute to the ghetto’s victims.

2. Established in 1942 on the grounds of former Jewish cemeteries, Plaszow developed from a forced-labor camp into a concentration camp. Over 35,000 prisoners were held here, and thousands lost their lives. During the guided visit, you will trace the former layout of the camp through surviving sites such as the Grey House, the roll-call area, remnants of key buildings, mass graves, and the Monument of Torn-Out Hearts. The story of Oskar Schindler is an important part of the visit, as many prisoners registered in Plaszow were later transferred to his factory, saving more than a thousand lives. With few physical remains, Plaszow’s impact lies in its quiet atmosphere—encouraging careful learning, remembrance, and reflection.

About Krakow

Krakow, Polens kungliga forna huvudstad, har en vackert bevarad medeltida gammal stad med Wawelslottet ovanför Wisła.

Stora torget, ett av Europas största medeltida torg, kantas av borgarhus och har den arkadprydda Klädhallen i mitten. Mariakyrkan reser sig i ett hörn, med ett snidat träaltare som är ett gotiskt mästerverk, och en trumpetsignal ljuder från dess torn dag och natt.

Top-ranked sights in Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum, Rynek Glowny (Main Market Square), Wieliczka Salt Mine (Kopalnia Soli).
