Schindler's Factory
Two museums have opened at Oskar Schindler's enamel and metal factory, which was made famous by Steven Spielberg's 1994 film. Schindler's former office — as well as part of the previous factory floor — has been turned into a branch of the Historical Museum of the City of Krakow. Schindler's former office, which has been preserved in its original state since World War II, is now a museum dedicated to his life and the lives of those he saved in this plant. A glass wall in the office known as the "Survivors' Ark" serves as a time capsule, filled with enamel pots similar to those made at the factory.
The rest of the factory houses a series of cinematic displays depicting Krakow during WWII and the Nazis' impact on the city's history as well as the lives of those who lived there. There are also several immersive stage-like reproductions of 1940s locales, ranging from a regular street to tram seats to a typical Jewish residence.
