What to do and see in Kazimierz, Southern Poland: The Best Things to do
Krakow is one of the most culturally and politically significant cities in Poland. It was the central site of the Nazi General Government during WWII, and there’s still a residual feeling of solemnity here that’s especially apparent during visits to the Plaszow Concentration Camp and the Oskar Schindler Factory. Both the Historic City Centre and the Jewish District are brimming with cafés, shops, and pubs, and the 10-acre Main Market Square is a medieval feast for the senses.

My name is Marek Kruczek. I'm the owner of the Gallery "Antiques with Passion", located 800meters from the Main Market Square in Krakow, at St. Dietla 107, next to Hala Targowa, where every week on Sundays takes place the largest Antique Market in Krakow. This gallery was born out of love and passion for collectibles.

This is a wonderful area to walk around and discover.Buildings are great & a lot of them are being renovated so I suspect this will become a more popular area over the next few years. The Plac Nowy is a central square which has a brilliant flea market on a Saturday & in the centre is a round building which houses lots of little street food kiosks serving a traditional Polish pizza like snack for around £2 Take a look & enjoy wandering the streets

Reviewed By genibre69 - London, United Kingdom
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.
