Itinerary

1. Krakow

Podgórze – Former Ghetto Area - The tour begins outside Schindler’s Factory on Lipowa Street. Without entering the museum, your guide explains how Schindler transformed his enamelware factory into a place of protection, using employment as a shield against deportation. This introduction sets essential historical context and explains how later film scenes were rooted in real events. Continuing through Podgórze, you walk within the former ghetto area. On Tarnowskiego Street, you’ll see the filming location of the iconic “girl in the red coat” scene, prompting discussion about symbolism, Schindler’s moral awakening, and the influence of film on Holocaust memory. Crossing the Piłsudski Bridge—once a boundary between freedom and confinement—you’ll learn about forced relocations, illegal crossings, and the physical separation between Jewish life in Kazimierz and imprisonment in the ghetto.

Duration: 60 mins

2. Krakow

Kazimierz – Jewish Quarter - The second part of the tour unfolds in Kazimierz, a district that flourished for centuries as a centre of Jewish culture before the war. Walking its preserved streets and courtyards, you’ll hear how the area was emptied of its Jewish population during the occupation and later used as a substitute filming location for the destroyed ghetto. At the corner of Dajwór and Na Przejściu Streets, you’ll see where the symbolic ghetto gate was constructed for the film. On Ciemna Street, your guide recounts the filmed escape of Poldek Pfefferberg—a moment defined by fear, instinct, and survival. The route continues to Józefa Street 12, where scenes of deportation, hiding, and liquidation were shot in original courtyards and passageways. The walk concludes on Szeroka Street, surrounded by historic synagogues. This is not just a story you hear—it’s a history you walk through, discovering how familiar streets became silent witnesses to persecution,survival & human choice
