Kazmierz The Former Jewish District

Enter Kazimierz, one of Kraków’s most evocative neighborhoods. Once a vibrant center of Jewish life, it now reflects centuries of faith, tradition, and close-knit community.

The tour begins on Szeroka Street, the historic heart of Kazimierz, framed by synagogues and townhouses dating back to the 16th–18th centuries. You will see the Old Synagogue, the oldest preserved synagogue in Poland, today a museum of Jewish history.
