Things to know before booking your Oskar Schindlers Factory tickets

  • Oskar Schindler Factory tickets must be booked at least 4 days in advance to secure your spot. As one of Krakow's most visited historical attractions, the museum allows only a limited number of guests each day, and tickets often sell out quickly.
  • Due to the heavy and somber subject matter, the museum is recommended for visitors aged 14 and above. Some exhibits deal with sensitive themes, including graphic depictions of war and the Holocaust, which may not be suitable for younger visitors.
  • Join a guided tour to truly understand the historical context and significance of the events commemorated in Schindler's Factory. Expert guides provide deeper insights into life in Krakow during the Nazi occupation and Oskar Schindler's extraordinary efforts to save his Jewish employees.
  • Opt for a skip-the-line ticket to bypass the waiting crowds and head straight into the factory museum. This option is particularly helpful if you're on a tight schedule or visiting during weekends and holidays.
  • Opt for combo tours to maximize your visit while covering multiple key attractions in a single day. The combos include Schindler's Factory and other significant historical sites, such as Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial, Wieliczka Salt Mine, or a walking tour of Krakow's Jewish Quarter (Kazimierz) and Ghetto. These tours are often cost-effective and time-efficient, offering a seamless experience with expert guides.
  • If you're planning a visit on a weekday, remember that the museum remains closed on the first Tuesday of every month. Be sure to check the updated timings of Schindler's Factory before planning your visit.
