Private Tour of Majdanek Concentration Camp & Lublin

At the designated time, our team will meet you at your hotel in Warsaw, setting off towards Lublin. Upon arrival, our first destination will be the Majdanek concentration camp.

As we enter this remarkably preserved historical site, we will delve into a dark chapter of European history. Originally constructed under the orders of Officer Himler to detain Polish prisoners of war, it later transformed into an extermination camp. Our guided exploration will take us through this eerie location, allowing us to witness the crematorium ovens, gas chambers, and the mausoleum that contains the ashes of countless victims.

Subsequently, we will proceed to the historic area of Lublin, where you will have an hour of leisure time to enjoy lunch. Following this, we will stroll through the old town, discovering the fate of the former Yeshiva study center and appreciating the remnants of the vibrant pre-war Jewish community. We will uncover numerous fascinating details about the Talmud and the Hebrew-speaking heritage.

We will then visit the impressive Lublin Castle, a medieval fortress that dates back to the 12th century. We will ascend its tower to take in breathtaking panoramas of the city, and afterward, we will enter the Chapel of the Holy Trinity, which showcases exquisite frescoes by the renowned artist Andrej Ruthenian.

After our time at the castle, we will make our way back to Warsaw, arriving at your hotel after a comprehensive 10-hour experience.
