Plashow is a Nazi concentration camp in the southern suburbs of Krakow, founded by the Nazis shortly after the German invasion of Poland. Originally, Plashow, opened in 1940, was planned as a forced labor camp, but in 1941 the camp was expanded and subsequently converted into a concentration camp, where from October 28, 1942, deportation of Jews from the Krakow ghetto began. Plashow was known as a concentration camp, supplying several military factories and a quarry with labor. The camp and life in it are shown in the Schindler's List movie (1993) about the life of Oskar Schindler. The area which held the camp now consists of sparsely wooded hills and fields, with one large memorial to all the victims, erected in 1964 and few smaller. As the Plaszow area is now a nature preserve, so the director Steven Spielberg built a camp replica in the Liban Quarry, some hundred meters away. We will visit all this points during our tour.

Plaszow, situated in the southern outskirts of Krakow, stands as a stark reminder of the atrocities committed during the Nazi regime. Established shortly after the German invasion of Poland, Plaszow was initially conceived as a forced labor camp in 1940. However, by 1941, it underwent expansion and transformation into a concentration camp. Functioning as a concentration camp, Plaszow supplied labor to various military factories and a quarry. The harrowing existence within its confines is vividly depicted in the acclaimed film "Schindler's List" (1993). Today, the terrain that once bore witness to unspeakable suffering comprises sparsely wooded hills and fields, marked by solemn memorials erected to honor the victims.
