The character of the walk
Kazimierz rewards a more attentive pace than a quick survey of the central square. Synagogues, museum exhibitions and the former town hall reveal different aspects of the district’s history. Religious and memorial sites call for quiet stops. The route follows streets; museum visits are not included in the walking estimate
Landmarks along the way
Remah Synagogue: a synagogue beside Kazimierz’s historic cemetery; Old Synagogue, Kraków: a historic synagogue and museum on Szeroka Street; Galicia Jewish Museum: a museum of Galicia’s Jewish heritage in Kazimierz
Corpus Christi Basilica: a brick basilica in historic Kazimierz; Ethnographic Museum of Kraków: a museum in the former Kazimierz town hall on Wolnica Square
