Itinerary

Day 1: Krakow: Jewish district Kazimierz & Schindler's Factory

Visit the Kazimierz district - this is where Jewish culture once flourished, the preserved traces of which have survived to this day. Szeroka Street is the center of old Jewish culture, where you can see old synagogues, palaces and majestic houses from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries.

Day 2: Krakow: Wieliczka Salt Mine & Plaszow CC

It is definitely worth a visit! Ballroom, concert hall, art gallery, shrine - all made of salt and located underground. The tourist route through the Wieliczka Mine passes by chambers and drifts, salt and wooden chapels, brine lakes, and around you there are breathtaking views. The walk resembles an expedition not only deep into the Earth, but also into the depths of history. Mining machines, tools, traces of manual salt extraction - all this fits into the story of people and the place that they have created over the centuries. The sacred places of the mine, including the delightful chapel of St. Kinga, create a unique, unique in Europe, and perhaps in the world, underground pilgrimage route.

Day 3: Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum from Krakow

The program will be concluded with a visit to the notorious former concentration camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Driving from Krakow will take us about 1.5 hours. On site, during an over 3-hour walking tour with a local guide, we will see the authentic places where millions of prisoners lived and died - victims of human cruelty. Prison barracks, walls of death, assembly squares, unloading ramps, the ruins of crematoria, personal belongings and documents are silent witnesses of those events and today they are supposed to bear the memory of them never again. Return to Krakow will take place in the evening.
