Your journey begins in the former Jewish Ghetto, established by Nazi Germany during World War II.

Pass by the famous Schindler’s Factory and hear the remarkable story of Oskar Schindler, who saved more than 1,000 Jews during the Holocaust.

Along the way, learn about communist propaganda, political control, workers’ life, and the resistance movements that helped shape modern Poland. Visit key landmarks including Central Square, the former steelworks district, and iconic examples of socialist-realist architecture.
