The museum sits in Zabłocie, minutes from where the Kraków ghetto stood and across the river from Kazimierz. Why the combined walking tours make more sense here than any other pairing.

What to Expect

The building was Schindler's enamel works, but the museum holds no original machinery. What the exhibition actually is: a reconstruction of Kraków under occupation, about 90 minutes, narrow and deliberately immersive.
