Explore the Old Synagogue in Kazimierz which was cherished by the Jews of the district during WW2. It is the oldest synagogue in Europe. There are hundreds of beautiful churches located around Plac Novy and Szeroka, but visit Katarzyny (St Catherine's) church in particular as it has a brilliant Baroque altar.
Trams 4 and 9 both go from Krakow city centre to Plac Novy in Kazimierz.
