A positive experience. All that remains of the factory is an office; the rest offers a glimpse into how the Jewish community lived before and during the war and the Nazi and Soviet occupations. Barbara, our guide, did a wonderful job of bringing this part of history to life. I highly recommend taking a guided tour—otherwise, you won’t understand a thing!

An engaging guided tour—a journey through time that you can experience with all your senses. We came away with so much: information, impressions, and emotions. In my opinion, this is only possible with a guided tour that draws attention to these details!

Natalia , our guide, was very clear, etailed and passionate to tell us all information and story during the tour. Very interesting and emotional to know more about the krakow people, story and treatments before and after the II war.

Since there were no guided tours in Spanish left, we joined a group with an English-speaking guide, and it turned out to be a great decision—the guide was fantastic. I don't remember her name, but she was truly exceptional. And the tour of the factory museum was well worth it.

The most interesting, complete, and emotionally engaging tour I have ever taken. Thomas, our guide, kept us completely captivated by the stories in an incredible way. Compliments! Don't miss it.

Join an expert-led tour to uncover insider stories and little-known details about the factory and the industrialist who inspired Spielberg’s Schindler’s List.

Choose a guide in your preferred language (English, German, Polish, Spanish, French, or Italian) for a deeper understanding of the Holocaust, ensuring no context is lost in translation.

Your guide provides insight into this complex figure, revealing his motivations, contradictions, and backstory, while leading you through a recreated Jewish ghetto, permanent exhibitions, and key film locations.

Spend more time exploring and less time in lines with priority entry, and discover the stories behind each exhibit that you might miss on your own.

Upgrade with a visit to the Podgórze Ghetto to witness the cramped and harsh living conditions endured by Jews under constant threat during WWII.

Very good guide! The hole experience got four instead of five stars because it was not easy to understand where to meet up, should we be in the line or where should we wait? Also delayed by nearly 30 minutes and a bit crowded inside during the tour. This part was decided by the museum and not by our guide, who did a very good job and gave us a superintresring tour!

Nice not to wait in line and headsets worked well I am a history teacher and was discipointed that it was more about WW2 and the occupation rather than Schindlers story and the factory aspect. Also the group was too big to see what she was talking about at the time so harder to follow.

Getting started
