What you can expect

Embark on a poignant tour that traces the compelling history of Polish Jews in Warsaw, spanning from the 15th century until their tragic fate in 1943. We start in front of the All Saints Church on Plac Grzybowski, a place where you can still feel Warsaw's Jewish heritage. From there, we go to the (last) Nożyk Synagogue in the city and continue to visible traces of the former ghetto: the longest piece of ghetto wall in Walicow, Museum of the Warsaw Ghetto (Exterior), Haberbusch Brewery, up to Hala Mirowska.

Throughout the tour, you will discover the fascinating history of Jewish-Polish coexistence over the centuries. Learn why Poland was known as Polin, a land where Jews believed they would thrive. With nearly 80 percent of the Jewish world population residing in Poland at one point, uncover the reasons behind this significant presence on this enlightening and thought-provoking journey.

If you are looking for an honest, respectful, and very human encounter with the history of this city – then you are in the right place with us.
