Cần Quan Tâm
Podgorze
The tour begins in front of Schindler’s Factory on Lipowa Street. Without entering the site, your guide explains how Oskar Schindler turned his enamelware factory into a place of refuge, using employment as protection against deportation and death. This introduction sets the historical foundation for both the real events and their cinematic portrayal. The walk continues into Podgórze, the location of the Nazi German ghetto. Along Tarnowskiego Street, see where the iconic scene of the girl in the red coat was filmed. This moment opens a deeper discussion about symbolism, Schindler’s moral awakening, and the role of film in shaping Holocaust memory. Crossing the Piłsudski Bridge—once a boundary between two worlds—the guide explains forced relocations, smuggling, and the brutal separation between Jewish life in Kazimierz and imprisonment in the ghetto.
Kazmierz The Former Jewish District
The route continues to Józefa Street 12, where powerful scenes of resettlement and hiding during the ghetto liquidation were filmed in original courtyards and passages. On Ciemna Street, hear the story behind the filmed escape of Poldek Pfefferberg—a moment of fear, survival, and quick thinking. At the junction of Dajwór and Na Przejściu Streets, see the location of the symbolic ghetto gate built for the film, representing the forced passage from freedom into confinement. Walking through preserved streets, learn how Kazimierz was emptied of its Jewish population during the occupation—and how decades later it became a stand-in for the destroyed ghetto. The tour concludes in Kazimierz, once the vibrant heart of Jewish life in Kraków, ending on Szeroka Street. Surrounded by historic synagogues, your guide introduces the district’s prewar community and explains why Spielberg chose Kazimierz to recreate scenes from the wartime ghetto.

5.00The experience is fantastic, and Marta, the guide, explains everything very well, sharing it all with great passion and detail. The tour is perfect; you visit all the points in Krakow where the Jews were confined and where some scenes from the movie Schindler's List were filmed. In short, I can say that if you come to Krakow, you must take this tour, you cannot miss it :)

5.00It was a wonderful experience, to walk through history and follow the actual footsteps of the persecuted and of Schindler. My tour guide Joanna was absolutely great, explaining everything in detail, giving inside information about the movie, the places that some scenes were shot, but also about the history of Jews in Krakow and in Poland in general. Learned a lot about the ghetto in Krakow, about the district Kazimierz, was moved significantly, recommend this tour! If available, ask for Joanna!
An exciting hike through the Jewish ghetto of Krakow, with the story of Oskar Schindler as a backdrop.

5.00A French-speaking guide who was able to immerse us in the grand history as well as the details of the Krakow ghetto during this two-hour hike. Super interesting. This should be done before visiting the Auschwitz Birkenau camps to respect the chronology.
A must-see visit to see Krakow under new eyes

5.00Very interesting and pleasant visit! We visited places of great interest with the guide Chiara who is truly exceptional! It was a fantastic journey both for history and for the places visited. We saw places that alone would have gone unnoticed and thanks to the guide we were able to better understand the history of the years 41 43 with the deportation of the Jews and ghetto life .. Highly recommended visit, especially for how it is structured and also and especially for the professionalism of the guide very pleasant, expert and nice
