Jewish Warsaw and Stories from the Ghetto - Walking Tour

Step into a meaningful walk through Jewish Warsaw and its history during World War II. Before the war, the city was home to the largest Jewish community in Europe, but this vibrant world was brutally destroyed under Nazi occupation.

This walk will take you back to the very beginnings of Jewish life in Warsaw and later into the story of the Warsaw Ghetto — its creation, daily life, and liquidation. Along the way, you will visit the remains of the Jewish Ghetto.

You will see monuments, the Nożyk Synagogue, the preserved Ghetto Walls, and Waliców Street — places that still exist in today’s city as silent witnesses to history. There, you will hear the stories connected to these sites.

We will end the tour at the site of the former wooden footbridge on Chłodna Street — a haunting symbol of separation between the small and large ghettos, and between two worlds: Jewish and non-Jewish. Here, you will uncover the story of the “Great Action” of 1942, Treblinka, and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
