Activity details
The Krakow Ghetto was one of 5 major metropolitan Jewish Ghettos. Nazi created it during the German occupation of Poland in World War II. The purpose of establishing the Ghetto was exploitation, terror and persecution of Poland Jews. It was also the staging area for separating the “abled workers” from those who would later be deemed unworthy of life. The Ghetto was liquidated between June 1942 and March 1943, with most of its inhabitants sent to their deaths at Auschwitz Concentration Camp. You will pass through the streets of Krakow Ghetto territory, viewing fragments of the ghetto walls. Listen to true stories about everyday life.
