Description
The Krakow ghetto has largely survived to this day in almost the same appearance as it had at the end of the war. Not only a large part of the old houses, but also a large part of the institutional and organizational buildings. The area continues to give off the dramatic atmosphere of the days when it underwent the final solution.
On this tour we will tour the entire Krakow ghetto in an extensive and in-depth way.
How did the ghettos work and what was their purpose during the Nazi occupation? What characteristics did the Krakow ghetto have and what similarities did it have with the rest of the ghettos in Poland?
We will analyze daily life in the ghetto to finish by visiting the famous “pharmacy under the eagle”, one of the most important museums in the city on the subject.
On the whole, the district has retained its gloomy appearance. Most of the buildings look exactly the same as those from 1941-1943, which makes the Krakow ghetto district a unique and one of the best preserved places for those who want to delve deeper into one of the basic aspects of Nazi thought.
