The Jewish Cemetery & Ghetto Memorials

03 Hours
Photo
  • Okopowa Street Jewish Cemetery
    • The Experience: Begin your morning here when the paths are quietest. This vast, densely forested 19th-century cemetery is one of the few places where pre-war Jewish Warsaw physically survived the destruction of the city.
    • What to See: Walk the mossy, ivy-choked pathways to see the beautiful, intricate tombstones of Warsaw's cultural elites, including Ludwik Zamenhof (creator of Esperanto) and the symbolic monument to Janusz Korczak.
    • Concierge Tip: Remember that the cemetery closes early on Fridays (usually around 1:00 PM or 3:00 PM depending on the season) and is closed on Saturdays for Shabbat. Headcoverings are expected for men.
  • Muranów & Ghetto Heroes Memorial Route
    • The Experience: Move east into Muranów, a neighborhood built literally on top of the rubble of the wartime Warsaw Ghetto.
  • Key Stops: Take a short driving/walking loop to see the Umschlagplatz Monument (the railway deportation site) and Nathan Rapoport's towering Monument to the Ghetto Heroes, which stands directly outside the stunning, contemporary POLIN Museum building.
