You can't understand present-day Warsaw without knowing what happened here 80 years ago. Warsaw was among the cities which suffered the most during World War II.
The city and its inhabitants experienced the horror of bombings, and the terror of everyday life under the eye of the SS but also courageously fought in two uprisings: the 1943 Jewish Ghetto Uprising and the 1944 Warsaw Uprising.
We are Antek and Tomek and we would like to invite you on our very personal city tour through the Old Town.
We live on the right side of Warsaw, in the Praga district, and we are out and about on the left side every day. We would be thrilled if you would join us.
