Your Expert Guide will take you on a journey back in time to post-war Krakow to learn about politics, culture and daily life under the Marxism-Leninism regime (1945-1989). Nowa Huta will surprise you with its Parisian hierarchy of streets and the grandeur of its buildings, as its one of the largest planned socialist realist settlements in the world. You will admire the grand architecture in the Ronald Reagan Plaza and the tree-lined Rose Avenue.

Church of Our Lady Queen of Poland
At every turn you will learn interesting facts about daily life in this well-planned city, but also about political tensions between the ordinary residents and the former Socialist government. Points of interest include the Nowa Huta Cross and The People’s Theater. The highlight of this PRL and Communism tour will be a visit to the striking Arka Pana Church (the Ark of the Lord, also known as Our Lady Queen of Poland Church), which was built by locals from 1967-1977 despite the government’s strong opposition. Discover a historical site of pre-Solidarity protests in Poland.
