Itinerary

1. Podgorze

The tour begins outside Schindler’s Factory on Lipowa Street. Without entering the museum, your guide explains how Oskar Schindler transformed his enamelware factory into a place of refuge, using employment as protection against deportation and death. This introduction lays the foundation for understanding both the historical events and their portrayal on screen. Walking deeper into Podgórze, you explore the former ghetto area. Along Tarnowskiego Street, see where the iconic girl in the red coat scene was filmed — a powerful moment that opens discussion about symbolism, Schindler’s moral awakening, and the role of cinema in Holocaust remembrance. Crossing the Piłsudski Bridge, once a boundary between freedom and imprisonment, your guide explains forced relocations, smuggling, and the brutal separation between Jewish life in Kazimierz and confinement in the ghetto.

Duration: 60 mins

2. Kazmierz The Former Jewish District

The experience continues in Kazimierz, once the vibrant center of Jewish life in Kraków. Beginning on Szeroka Street, surrounded by historic synagogues, you’ll learn about the prewar community and why Steven Spielberg chose Kazimierz to recreate ghetto scenes destroyed during the war. Walking through preserved streets and courtyards, discover how Kazimierz was emptied of its Jewish population — and later transformed into a cinematic stand-in for loss and memory. At the junction of Dajwór and Na Przejściu Streets, see the location of the symbolic ghetto gate built for the film. On Ciemna Street, hear the dramatic story behind the filmed escape of Poldek Pfefferberg — a moment of fear, survival, and quick thinking. The route continues to Józefa Street 12, where scenes of resettlement, hiding, and liquidation were filmed in original courtyards and passageways. The tour finishes in Kazimierz, the historic center of Jewish life in Kraków, with its final stop on Szeroka Street.
