Schindler's Factory Guided Tour: #1 Ranked Museum in Krakow on TripAdvisor

Step into history and walk in the footsteps of a hero. One man saved over 1,200 lives during one of history's darkest times. He wasn't a typical hero, and his reasons were complex and not always selfless. Who was he?

Join us on the Schindler's Factory Guided Tour and become a witness to wartime Krakow. Feel the tension and bravery as you walk among the city’s inhabitants, navigate narrow ghetto passages, and experience the haunting realities of resistance and imprisonment.

Imagine popping into a photographer’s shop, boarding a tram to watch the cityscape roll by, and stepping into a typical Jewish apartment in the ghetto. Feel the omnipresent fear and then the bittersweet relief of liberation by the Soviet Army.

Our tour combines: Documentary photographs, eyewitness accounts, film documentaries, and immersive multimedia shows to create a vivid, chronological vision of Krakow’s history. See how the war shattered lives and how everyday objects—photographs, newspapers, personal artifacts—kept the spirit of a besieged city alive.
