Schindler's Factory: Private Guided Tour

About this experience

Schindler's Factory: Private Guided Tour is a two-hour guided visit to the Oskar Schindler's Enamel Factory museum in Krakow, the site where German industrialist Oskar Schindler employed and protected more than 1,000 Jewish workers during the Nazi occupation of Poland. The factory at Lipowa 4 now houses a permanent exhibition run by the Historical Museum of the City of Krakow, covering the occupation of the city from 1939 to 1945 through reconstructed interiors, personal testimonies, and archival material. A licensed local guide leads the visit, providing context on Schindler's role in shielding his workers from deportation to KL Plaszow concentration camp, the fate of Krakow's Jewish community under occupation, and the broader history of the city during the war. The exhibition traces daily life under German rule, the liquidation of the Krakow ghetto, and the circumstances that led Schindler to intervene on behalf of his workforce. Entry to the factory museum and the services of the guide are included in the booking; a tour guide audio system is available on site for approximately 5 PLN per person and is not included. The tour is not suitable for wheelchair users. Gratuities are at the visitor's discretion.
