Private Tour of Majdanek Concentration Camp & Lublin

At the scheduled time, our guide will meet you at your hotel in Warsaw for a journey to Lublin. Upon arrival, we will proceed to the Majdanek concentration camp.

As we enter this historically preserved site, we will reflect on a period when Europe faced unimaginable cruelty. This facility was constructed under the orders of an officer named Himler, originally intended for Polish prisoners of war, but soon transformed into an extermination camp. During the visit, we will observe the crematorium ovens, gas chambers, and the mausoleum that holds the ashes of the victims.

Following this somber experience, we will travel to the historic center of Lublin, where you will have an hour of leisure for lunch. Afterward, we will walk through the old town, uncovering the history of the former Yeshiva study center and appreciating the remnants of the pre-war Jewish community. We will share engaging stories about the Talmud and the world of Hebrew speakers.

Next on our itinerary is Lublin Castle, a medieval fortress that dates back to the 12th century. We will ascend its tower to take in breathtaking views of the city, and then visit the Chapel of the Holy Trinity, renowned for its exquisite frescoes by the master artist Andrej Ruthenian.

After exploring the fortress, we will make our way back to Warsaw. The total duration of the tour is approximately 10 hours, concluding with your arrival back at the hotel.
