Krakow: A Tale of Two Cities - Unraveling Jewish History and Culture with My Son

My son and I were excited to explore Krakow, a city that boasts a stunning Old Town Square, historical landmarks, and the famous Wawel Royal Castle. However, we were also drawn to a lesser-known side of Krakow: the rich and resilient history of its Jewish community. Join us on our journey by reading: "Exploring Jewish Krakow: Tracing the Rich History and Culture of Poland's Jewish Community" in Go World Travel Magazine.

Delve into Krakow's fascinating Jewish history as we visit synagogues dating back to the 1500s, Schindler's Factory, and Ghetto Hero's Square. Learn about the important role King Casimir III played in the development of the Jewish community and how it thrived until the devastating events of World War II. Walk with us as we navigate the lively Kazimierz neighborhood, now home to an array of Jewish and Polish restaurants, cafes, and shops, and discover how the area's revitalization began with the filming of Schindler's List in the early 1990s.

Although our visit to Krakow did not include a trip to Auschwitz and Birkenau, as my son was under the recommended age, our journey provided us with valuable insights into the lives of the city's Jewish community and their enduring strength and perseverance.
