The Krakow Ghetto

Witness History

Available for over a year

The city of Krakow in Poland was home to a large Jewish community before World War II. But with the arrival of the Nazis many of its Jews were deported, or fled. Then in 1941 a Jewish ghetto was built. This programme begins with a deeply disturbing recollection. Photo: Dr Ludwik Zurowski
