Highlights

Visit the model Socialist city of Nowa Huta in Krakow to discover the post-war history of the People's Republic of Poland (PRL) and learn about daily life under communism. Includes private car transfers from your accommodation and entry to Arka Pana.


Highlights:


• Explore the post-war history of Krakow with a 5-Star Local Guide
• Admire the architecture and monuments of Nowa Huta, a model Socialist district
• Learn about the events and people of the Communist regime in Poland
• Find out why people fought to build the Church of Our Lady Queen of Poland (Arka Pana)

Most people only see Krakow's Old Town, but on this private tour we want to show you Nowa Huta, a model socialist city created during the turbulent course of Stalinism in Poland. It’s a unique opportunity to learn in your native language about the Socialist social engineering and the historical events that led to the birth of Solidarity.

Itinerary

  • Krakow

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Nowa Huta includes a round-trip transfer by private car from your accommodation in Krakow, so that it will be easy to join your Private Guide on a walking tour of this remarkable neighborhood. The easternmost district of Krakow is one of the most historically and culturally significant places in the history of modern Poland.

  • Nowa Huta Cultural Centre

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Your Expert Guide will take you on a journey back in time to post-war Krakow to learn about politics, culture and daily life under the Marxism-Leninism regime (1945-1989). Nowa Huta will surprise you with its Parisian hierarchy of streets and the grandeur of its buildings, as its one of the largest planned socialist realist settlements in the world. You will admire the grand architecture in the Ronald Reagan Plaza and the tree-lined Rose Avenue.

  • Church of Our Lady Queen of Poland

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    At every turn you will learn interesting facts about daily life in this well-planned city, but also about political tensions between the ordinary residents and the former Socialist government. Points of interest include the Nowa Huta Cross and The People’s Theater. The highlight of this PRL and Communism tour will be a visit to the striking Arka Pana Church (the Ark of the Lord, also known as Our Lady Queen of Poland Church), which was built by locals from 1967-1977 despite the government’s strong opposition. Discover a historical site of pre-Solidarity protests in Poland.
