Schindler’s Factory Museum and Free Kraków

On our first full day in Kraków, we started off walking from Old Town to the Schindler Factory Museum. On the way we stopped by a 14th century basilica (Corpus Christi), the Ghetto Plaza Memorial, and a small stretch of the ghetto wall. In the afternoon and evening students explored widely what Old Town Kraków has to offer. Some pictures are below feature a Wawel Castle tour, some cultural performances in the Old Town Square, and a classical music concert at the Peter and Paul Cathedral.

Tomorrow is Auschwitz I and II (Birkenau). We will spend at least six hours there. It will be our hardest day, emotionally and perhaps physically as well.
