FREETOUR.com says
Our secret Traveller called this tour "a roller-coaster of emotion" praising the local guides for a tour that "is delivered impeccably well, giving an all-encompassing account of Jewish history in, and the significance of, the district of Kazimierz which is, despite a devastating history, a free-spirited & creative area with a positive, enjoyable beat today.
Overview of the tour in Krakow
Poland was once a home to one of the largest Jewish communities in the world, and a centre of this thriving civilization was Kraków. Its historical Jewish district is a jewel of Jewish art and architecture. A place where 7 ancient synagogues, that amazingly survived the destruction of World War II and the Holocaust, stand witness to the test of time.
During our tour we will discover the historical context of the local Jewish community, talk about the death and destruction of World War II but also witness the amazing Jewish culture’s revival in contemporary Kraków. Present-day Kazimierz, a historical Jewish district, is also a cultural heart of the modern city of Kraków and home to a small but vibrant Jewish community. Join our tour and get ready for a deeply moving and fascinating history!
