70 eerily empty chairs spread across the square representing discarded possessions left by deportees to various concentration camps.

They just make this place uglier. Building and Solna 1 should be build far away from the city center. It doesn't fit there at all. I cant understand who allow for this to happen.

Nothing to impressive about this place, except its full of history. On this square “Apteka pod Orlem”, the only one allowed in Jewish quarter’, is located. Here, Tadeusz Pankiewitz saved many lives.

A must see part of Krakow.

Really nice concept of place with chairs. Really sad chairs.

La plaza en sí no es mucha cosa, de hecho quizás solo destaque el famoso monumento . No obstante, es un lugar emotivo por todo lo que ocurrió allí. Hay que visitarla.

Monumento mais tocante, é de arrepiar. No Free Walking Tour do bairro judeu eles explicam o que cada elemento significa. Pra não esquecer.

70 sedie in metallo che, come descritto nel libro di T. Pankiewicz “Farmacia nel Ghetto di Cracovia”, ricordano le sedie trasportate nella piazza durante la liquidazione del ghetto nel 1943.

Страшное место, горькая память . Тут нацисты собирали евреев, которым говорили, что их везут на "переселение". Везли в Освенцим.

Жанетта Мазурок

Место- память , того что было, страшно и горько...Вечная память ...
