What to expect

Płaszów, which was initially a labor camp, eventually became a concentration camp located very close to the center of the city of Krakow.

The camp was built and developed gradually from the end of 1942 to the end of 1944. In it thousands of Jews and Poles, many of whom lived in Krakow, were killed. Shortly after the war this field was forgotten and the communist authorities did not notice the special significance of this place allowing the construction of some residential areas etc.

The place where the camp is located is a huge cemetery of ashes scattered from the thousands of victims who were executed here. This was the place where many of the lives of Krakow's Jews ended. Thousands of refined people in the Krakow ghetto were transferred here when it was decided to close it. Płaszów was the scene of mass executions and prisoners forced to work in inhumane conditions. It is in this field where a large part of the scenes in Steven Spielberg's film Schindler's List were filmed.
