Itinerary

  1. Krakow

    Passing by

    You see on your left, a small gathering of food trucks, from which odors emanate that may make you hungry.

  2. Wisla

    Passing by

    You now cross the Wisla, the Vistula in French, which is the main river of Poland. Historically, the Vistula is the natural border between Slavic and Baltic peoples.

  3. Cricoteka - Centre for Documentation of the Art of Tadeusz Kantor

    Passing by

    The strange building you see on your left is the Cricoteka, one of the main cultural hubs of the city.

  4. Stop 4

    Passing by

    You are immediately intrigued by this large square filled with empty chairs. It is about the place of heroes.

  5. Stop 5

    Passing by

    On this side of the Vistula you are in the Stare Podgorze district. The atmosphere is more traditional and less touristic than Kazimierz.

  6. Stop 6

    Passing by

    Here you are, facing the magnificent neo-Gothic church of Saint Joseph. You might not have expected to come across a Christian church in the Jewish Quarter, let alone one so important, but before the creation of the ghetto, Jews and Catholics lived here together.

  7. Stop 7

    Passing by

    Here you are on Father Bernatek's awesome bridge. Built in 2010 to link the districts of Kazimierz and Podgorze, it takes its name from the monk Laetus Bernatek, famous for his dedication and involvement in the construction of hospitals.

  8. Stop 8

    Passing by

    The huge red brick building you pass on your left is the Hospital of the Order of Brothers of Mercy. Bonifraters.

  9. Plac Wolnica

    Passing by

    Wolnica Square, on which you now arrive, is part of the former Point of Sale Square in the city of Kazimierz.

  10. Stop 10

    Passing by

    This imposing brick church was founded in 1340 by Casimir the Great. You keep hearing about Casimir the Great since you arrived in Krakow.

  11. Stop 11

    Passing by

    Take the door you see in front of you, to reach the passage where one of the highlights of the movie “Schindler’s List” was shot.

  12. Stop 12

    Passing by

    You now arrive at Place Neuve, easily recognizable with its octagonal Covered Point of Sale in the centre.

  13. Stop 13

    Passing by

    This is now the Izaaka Synagogue. You have noticed how different all the synagogues you have seen in Krakow are from each other.

  14. Stop 14

    Passing by

    Here you are at the heart of Jewish history in Krakow. It is said that it was here, on Szeroka Street, that Casimir the Great built the walls of the first university.

  15. Stop 15

    Passing by

    So this is one of the synagogues still standing today. It is the Synagogue Remuh with its attached cemetery. Remuh is an acronym of the first letters of Rabbi Moses Isserles.

  16. Stop 16

    Passing by

    It’s not to make you feel bad that you’re being led from tomb to tomb, but the new Jewish cemetery in Krakow, in addition to being free, is a must-see for discovering the Kazimierz district.

  17. Muzeum Krakowa - Stara Synagoga

    Passing by

    Here you are in front of the Old Synagogue, which, as its name suggests, is the oldest synagogue, not in Krakow, but in the whole of Poland.
