Come across personal artifacts and hear stories of the prisoners through photographs, documents, and belongings on display at the outdoor museum. A visit to the medical experiments block and brick barracks is a chilling experience, be prepared for an emotional past. Birkenau, one of the 40 sub-camps at Auschwitz, was infamous for its ghastly gas chambers. Before heading back to Krakow, spend an hour with your guide at the ghastly gas chambers of the Birkenau sub-camp.

On the second day, discover the Schindler’s Factory Museum, a place of refuge for over 1,100 Jewish workers. Get skip-the-line access to the meticulously reconstructed factory that offers a profound and eye-opening experience, leaving you with vivid memories of the heroes, survivors, and victims of the Nazi occupation in Krakow.
