Established in 1937 in Krakow, Schindler’s Factory is an enamel factory turned history museum famous for owner Oskar Schindler’s historically significant decision to hire 1200 Jews to save them from the atrocities of the Nazis during World War II.

The factory has since been turned into a museum that houses several documents, photographs, artifacts, and emotional videos left behind by the incredibly brave heroes and victims of the war. It depicts their wartime experiences. The history museum also hosts exhibitions, educational activities, and events that depict what life was like during the war.
