Tour of the Oskar Schindler’s Factory Museum

We went to the Schindler Factory museum, which is located in the former administrative building of the Schindler factory.

We entered through the main entrance and began walking through the museum. The exhibit began about the initial invasion of Poland by the Germans.

As we went through the museum there was more information about Krakow and how the occupation impacted the Polish and Jewish people.

The exhibit was more about the occupation of the Nazis in Krakow and how the people were treated. As we went through the exhibit we saw different exhibits about the life in Krakow and how the people were persecuted and forced into labour camps or worse.

We came across some of the exhibits of Oskar Schindler Factory.

The Schindler museum was interesting but also disappointing. There were very little information and exhibits directly concerning  Oskar Schindler and the events that took place at the factory.
