How do we navigate memory, loss, and ethical tourism in a district shaped by trauma?

Join us for a guided walk through Podgórze — once the site of the Nazi-era Kraków Ghetto, today a growing tourist destination with a complex legacy.

📍 Starting point: Józefa 36, Kraków
📅 June 26, 2025 (Thursday)
⏰ Time: 11:00 AM
🎟 Ticket: 40 PLN (limited to 20 participants)
🔗 Tickets available at: 34.jewishfestival.pl/en/tickets

Led by an expert contributor to the Taube Center’s Field Guide to Jewish Krakow, this walk will address:
✅ how the district’s history is remembered or forgotten,
✅ what role tourism plays in shaping urban memory,
✅ and how we can approach “dark tourism” responsibly and respectfully.

Join us to reflect on the meanings and responsibilities of visiting places marked by history.

This event is part of the program: Jewish Heritage in a Tourist-Oriented Urban Space,
organized by the Taube Center during the 34th Jewish Culture Festival in Krakow.
