Krakow is simply one of the most inspiring and curriculum<br />
enhancing destinations for any history school trip group.<br />
Fortunately spared destruction during World War II, the medieval<br />
city of Krakow houses more artworks and historic buildings than<br />
any other Polish city and is the country’s most popular destination.<br />
Capital of Poland for more than 500 years and a setting for the<br />
Oscar winning film Schindler’s List, Krakow is an ancient city with a<br />
haunting past.<br />
On a school trip to Krakow, students can expect to learn and gain a<br />
greater understanding of the atrocities committed by the Nazis in<br />
nearby concentration camps Plaszow and Auschwitz-Birkenau and<br />
how the city became a ghetto for Jewish persecution during World<br />
War II.<br />
For an appreciation of Poland’s history before World War II, students<br />
can visit the impressive Wawel Castle, take a leisurely stroll around<br />
the Old Town Square and visit the Salt Mines to appreciate the<br />
natural splendours of Poland. With its medieval charm and gothic<br />
architecture, Krakow is a city blessed with historical landmarks and<br />
monuments that act as a poignant reminder of Europe’s turbulent<br />
past.<br />
