• Plac Bohaterów Getta - The route includes a visit to Ghetto Heroes Square in the Podgórze district, a site deeply linked to the history of the Kraków Ghetto. Redesigned in 2005 as a memorial, the square features rows of empty metal chairs that symbolize forced displacement and absence, making it one of Kraków’s most poignant commemorative locations.
• Plaszow Concentration Camp - Established in 1942 on the grounds of former Jewish cemeteries, Płaszów transitioned from a forced-labor camp to a concentration camp. Over 35,000 prisoners were held here, with thousands losing their lives. During the guided tour, visitors will explore the former camp layout through existing sites such as the Grey House, the roll-call area, remnants of camp infrastructure, mass graves, and the Monument of Torn-Out Hearts. The narrative includes the story of Oskar Schindler, as many prisoners registered in Płaszów were later moved to his factory, saving over a thousand lives. With few physical remnants, Płaszów’s impact is felt in its atmosphere. The serene landscape invites careful listening, remembrance, and thoughtful reflection on one of the darkest periods in Kraków’s history.
