Continue to Schindler’s Enamel Factory, one of Kraków’s most powerful museums. With a licensed guide, explore the exhibition “Kraków under Nazi Occupation 1939–1945,” presented through the story of Oskar Schindler.
Inside the former factory, learn how Schindler used his position and resources to protect Jewish workers from deportation, saving the lives of more than a thousand people. Original photographs, personal belongings, and reconstructed city scenes reveal the fear and hardship of daily life under occupation. Against this backdrop, Schindler’s actions emerge as a story of moral courage, humanity, and hope.
