Overview
In 1939, the President of Warsaw, Stefan Starzy?ski said: “I wanted Warsaw to be great. Both my colleagues and I were making plans of a great Warsaw of the future." That same year, in September, Warsaw was fighting in a war that would change it forever. The war wasn’t just tanks, bombs, soldiers, and ruins. Let us share with you the ballad of a city that survived its own death.
Sign up for this walking tour if you'd like to learn why Germany attacked Poland, hear about what everyday life looked like and how Poles defied the Germans in clever ways, see buildings that survived the war and bear its scars until today, admire memorials to the soldiers, civilians, women, and children that all had their role to play during the war, learn on how many fronts Polish soldiers fought, understand how many uprisings the city saw, know how close Warsaw came to being erased from the face of the earth.
