Very interesting place with even more interesting history. Be sure to read the stories on the walls. The carrot cake was very nice.

The AJC is an incredible museum that preserves the Jewish history of the town of Oswiecim. The synagogue has been beautifully restored and the site of the great synagogue of the town has a beautiful memorial. The city tours are very informative as to the notable Jewish places in the town. Highly recommend this museum to learn more about Jewish history in Poland that was erased in the Holocaust.

Such a sentimental place to visit after the camps. ❤️✡️

Very interesting museum and a lovely tour done by a German Social Volunteer. English, German and Polish tours possible. Visit to the Old Synagogue is also nice and Jewish groups are able to hold a prayer with the old Thora. Beautiful, even though equipped with replicas. Very well worth a visit but don't expect much information on World War II. It's about Jewish life in the city.
