Krakow (Poland)
The capital of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship and the second largest city in Poland, this is the city of Krakow. It is the place of the most important moments of the Polish nation, where history has been written since 966. The former residence of Polish kings, which has been given its rightful place on the UNESCO World Heritage List, offers many historical sights to admire, such as Wawel Castle and its cathedral or the seat of an ancient university.
This medieval-looking town has also experienced sad moments in its history, commemorated by many buildings and monuments. One of Krakow's districts became a Jewish ghetto during World War II, and a labour camp for Jewish prisoners was set up near the city. In Krakow you can also visit the factory of the famous Oscar Schindler, who saved the lives of thousands of Jews.
