One man saved over 1200 lives. He is not a standard, stereotypical hero though. His reasons were not always selfless. He is a very complex character.

Skip the lines and enter Oskar Schindler’s enamel factory, step back in time and see Kraków as it was more than 70 years ago through photos, documents, and radio recordings. Hear about World War II in the country where it started and discover the sobering stories of the factory’s Jewish employees.

Get a glimpse of life in WWII as you explore the museum in Oskar Schindler's factory with your knowledgeable guide. Feel like you’re walking among the city’s residents on the cobbled streets of wartime Kraków, learn about Schindler’s story, and discover how Jewish employees of the factory crafted pans and tins for the German army during WWII.

Through photos, objects, and multimedia installations, enter narrow passages and crowded apartments in the ghetto, find weapons in a resistance house, and get a sense of the sobering time when fear gripped the city’s inhabitants. Try to imagine life in hiding and the bittersweet joy of liberation by the Soviet army as this moving museum tour ends
