Join us for a virtual Tour of Płaszów. Over the last 200 years, the site of KL Płaszów, in the south of Krakow, has contained Austro-Hungarian military fortifications, two Jewish cemeteries, and a Nazi labour camp and concentration camp; today, it primarily functions as a public park. The future of the site and the way its past is presented remain an open question. On a virtual tour with former FestivALT co-director Adam Schorin, we’ll explore the history of this site, discover what remnants of its past lives are still present, and engage in a complicated debate about how the site should be treated today.

Adam Schorin is a writer from New York who moved to Poland to work on a novel about a family descended from Polish Jewish Holocaust survivors.
He is a former co-director of FestivALT and a guide and educator with the Taube Center for the Renewal of Jewish Life in Poland Foundation.
