Having arrived at the former camp, we'll remember the tragic events which took place here from 1943 onwards, when Płaszów began to receive thousands of Jews from the Krakow ghetto. You will get to learn about the remarkable history of Krakow city during the holocaust.
The camp and life in it are shown in the Schindler's List movie (1993) about the life of Oskar Schindler. The area which held the camp now consists of sparsely wooded hills and fields, with one large memorial to all the victims, erected in 1964 and few smaller. As the Plaszow area is now a nature preserve, so the director Steven Spielberg built a camp replica in the Liban Quarry, some hundred meters away.
We will visit all these points during our tour and you will enjoy this tour and learn a lot from it.

Michael was amazingly knowledgeable and a very good narrator. He did an excellent job of humanizing the suffering at that concentration camp.

This was an extremely enjoyable tour of the Plaszow concentration camp. As with all the camps, this is a really sad tale to hear about.
Although there are not many physical ruins left today, you get a really good feeling of where everything was located within the camp.
Our guide Anna was fantastic. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for this tour and all things WW2 history was superb.
This walking tour is highly recommended to everyone

Had a very very interesting tour with a young lady, sorry didn't get her name on Wednesday. She had a lot of knowledge in the history of Plaistow former concentration camp. Even though the weather was terrible, heavy rain didn't stop us being totally engaged the whole time. A place we thought we wouldn't visit, but it was well worth it.
