My wife and I, along with another couple, visited this museum while in the Former Jewish Quarter, We were fortunate to be the only guests in the facility at the time, and had a young guide all to our own. The combination of the visual displays, and the easily read labels, coupled with the guide's expertise and added emphasis, we found ourselves movingly educated, and emotionally touched. It is a small facility, with a potentially big impact.
A very thought provoking museum to visit, in some respects more thought provoking than the camps, because it is about individuals and their stories, i will leave this review wit a very though proving quote, Mummy will it hurt when they kill us, No my dear it will be very quick, little did they know we would live with for ever, no more need to be said
When I was visiting this place it was exhibition of photos two families where was history about these families. This place with very big space and good lights. Here are bookshop and beautiful cafe too
I only expected to spend about 20 minutes here but that turned about 1.5 hours. The photo exhibition on Jewish history and monuments in Galicia is excellent and fully translated into English. The captions succinctly describe the haunting photos. The museum is included in the Krakow Card.
This museum really got to me. The photos are incredible and give such an insight into Jewish life in the city- the horrible things that happened but also the enduring spirit and culture of the people.
Even if you think you know a little about what happened, it is likely that there will be so much that you don't.
