What you can expect

Explore the darker side of Kraków’s Kazimierz on a chilling guided walk through one of the city’s most atmospheric districts. Beneath its historic streets lies the story of Karol Kot, known as the “Vampire of Kraków,” whose crimes in the 1960s shocked the city and left a lasting mark on its history.

This tour takes you to locations connected to Kot’s life and attacks, set against the backdrop of post-war, communist-era Kraków — a period marked by social tension and uncertainty. Through this context, you will gain insight into how a series of violent acts unfolded and how fear spread across the community.

More than a retelling of crimes, the experience examines the psychology behind the violence and the investigation that ultimately led to Kot’s arrest. It offers a historically grounded look at a disturbing chapter in Kraków’s modern past.
