Ghetto Heroes Square

This guide to Ghetto Heroes Square in Kraków tells the story of the square once called Zgody, Concord Square, through the eyes of pharmacist Tadeusz Pankiewicz, who watched it from his shop window after the Nazis sealed off the surrounding district in 1941. You'll hear what he later wrote about the square's use starting in May 1942, as families were held here before being sent onward, and what he remembered of the furniture left behind in the open air. The guide traces that memory forward to how it eventually shaped what stands in the square today.
