Jewish Warsaw by Retro Fiat Private Tour
Tour Overview
Meet our knowledgeable guide and settle into your Fiat 125p, the 1980s car that was a fixture of life in communist-period Warsaw. Your tour includes a souvenir photo of you in your car, and onboard snacks to sustain you during your explorations. Explore the former Jewish Ghetto area and see the remnants of the Ghetto Wall, built in 1940 that imprisoned more than 400,000 Jews. Hear stories about this terrible period, then pass Grzybowski Square (Plac Grzybowski), once a part of the ghetto, on your way to the still-operational Nożyk Synagogue. Continue deeper into the former ‘Large Ghetto’ of Muranów, built on the rubble of the ghetto, and now adorned with street art and modern buildings. Park here and take a walk around the Jewish Cemetery to see some of its thousands of graves. Next, pay your respects at the imposing Ghetto Heroes Monument in front of the nearby Museum of the History of Polish Jews which presents 1,000 years of Polish Jewry through artefacts and imagery. If you wish, ask your guide to show you some locations used in Roman Polanski’s Oscar-winning movie, The Pianist, set in Holocaust-era Warsaw. See some of the settings in the Praga-North district.
