The tour was extremely well organised. The guide was excellent, she explained in great detail the history of the Factory. It started with a little back story on Schindler's life , how he bought the factory and what his role was in liberating so many people . You get a real feel of what life was like in this period for all concerned. I found it very emotional

I was expecting to visit schindler fatory, and to learn more about schindler history,but almost the whole visit was only about the history of jews poeple that was very interesting but we didn't learn that much about schindler and also about jews history. It was very expensive for the visit we got.. Maybe it should the content of the visit should be more detail on the website.

"well liked" is an inappropriate expression - impressive, touching, shocking - what terrible acts people are capable of

Our guide was absolutely brilliant. She gave a rounded, in-depth and relevant overview of the scene in Krakow from both a national and Jewish perspective. The installations were also excellent, particularly the ghetto and room of choices. It does get busy with people sometimes walking through our tour, but she handled this extremely well. My only suggestion would be that signage for the tour itself was more obvious - our ticket was for 11:55 but the attendee outside the museum's sign said 12pm which caused confusion.

Your experience

Visiting the horrors of the Holocaust

When Steven Spielberg made “Schindler’s List” in 1993, he put a spotlight on the life and achievements of Oskar Schindler, the German entrepreneur whose selfless acts of sacrifice and humanity saved hundreds of the city’s inhabitants from the gas chambers. Today, you can visit the now world-famous factory where the wartime events of the film took place and learn more about the Holocaust and the many hundreds of people Schindler saved.

Knowing the Nazis

The factory was opened to visitors in 2010, after being turned into a museum that showcases life under Nazi occupation in Krakow. For instance, you can see the “Kraków under Nazi Occupation 1939–1945” exhibit, which constitutes a chronological eyewitness report from the Second World War, or experience war-torn Krakow from the window of a tram, or wander through the dense labyrinth of a reconstructed Jewish ghetto. The exhibits have been meticulously crafted to recreate the city space from that era, employing photographs, films, and items from Nazi-occupied Krakow.

While you take in the many exhibits, your guide will tell you more about the lives of the inhabitants of this city, the Holocaust, and Oskar Schindler’s heroic contribution to humanity, with the help of facts and anecdotes. Visiting the painstakingly reconstructed factory is a truly eye-opening experience, leaving you with the vivid and haunting memory of the many heroes, survivors, and victims of the Nazi occupation of Krakow.
