Go for a walk around the former Jewish district. It will be a memorable journey through the past. In 1939, Warsaw housed the second largest population of Jews (after New York) in the world. This fascinating area was inhabited by over 400,000 people, who were swept from the earth's surface in a short span of 3 years. Learn about the story of the Jewish District.
Walking past the remnants of the Ghetto walls, follow the Trail of Martyrdom and Memory from the monument of the Ghetto Heroes to the former old railway station, called Umschlagplatz from where 300,000 Jews were sent to the extermination camp in Treblinka in 1943.
Learn about the everyday life in the Ghetto, cooperation among the Poles, resistance against the Germans, and about the Jewish Uprising: the first attempt of the kind in occupied Europe.

Know before you go
"On earth, do not hide my blood so that my scream does not cease." The Warsaw Ghetto, a prewar Jewish district in Warsaw, does not exist anymore. It is still possible to find fragments of the Ghetto, but the essence of this part of the city, the sealed district of Warsaw, is hidden from us by the earth, asphalt, the foundations of new buildings, and oblivion.
As a Warsaw Licensed Guide, we will take you around the city which does not exist, and show you a view of the exterminated nation. During this tour, you will have an opportunity to see the remnants of the Holocaust in Warsaw. A walk around the former Jewish district will be a memorable journey to the past.
During the six-hour tour, you will hear the story of the Jewish District walking amongst the remnants of the Ghetto walls.
