Beginning with 11 June 2010 visitors have the opportunity to see a new exhibition titled Kraków under Nazi Occupation 1939–1945  which will be on display at the former administrative building of Oskar Schindler’s Enamel Factory at 4 Lipowa Street. The facility has recently been transformed into a new branch of the Historical Museum of the City of Kraków.

The exhibition is primarily a story about Kraków and its inhabitants, both Polish and Jewish, during World War Two. It is also a story about Nazi Germans – the occupiers who arrived here on 6 September 1939, brutally disrupting Kraków’s centuries-long history of Polish-Jewish relations. The great history of World War Two intersects here with everyday life, and the personal dramas of individual people overlap with the tragedy which affected the whole world.

Oskar Schindler (28 April 1908 – 9 October 1974) was an ethnic German industrialist. Saved almost 1,200 Jews during the Holocaust by employing them in his factories, which were located in what is now Poland and the Czech Republic respectively. He is the subject of the novel "Schindler's Arch", and the film based on it,"Schindler's List".
