    Bike Tour - Jewish Quarter, Ghetto, and Plaszów Work Camp

    Krakow
    4 hours

    During World War II, Krakow's Jews were forced to move to the other side of the river, to Podgórze, where the ghetto was established. As the ghetto was liquidated, some 8,000 Jews were sent to Plaszów work camp, just 2.5 kilometers away. Join me on a bike tour as we trace the footsteps of the Jewish community through these districts, honoring their memory.
