Lublin is the largest city in south-eastern Poland. It is home to a long and fascinating history and stunning Polish architecture. It was here where the Lublin Union was signed in 1569 - a pact that sealed the constitutional union between the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania creating a free republic associated with a single Parliament, an elected king, a currency, and ethnic and religious tolerance. Start your private tour at the Litewski Square with a multimedia fountain famous for water performances entertaining Lublinians and the guests in the season. Your guide will be waiting for you with your name by the Lublin Union Monument (plac Litewski, 20-080 Lublin, Poland), reminding of the former glory of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Walk along Krakowkie Przedmiescie, the main Lublin promenade, to Krakow gate, a gateway to the Old Town, housing the Museum of the History of the city of Lublin.

Your guide will greet you at the hotel and invite you for the fully private sightseeing. The history of Lublin Jews is almost as long as the history of the city - it has about 700 years. Before the outbreak of World War II, the Jewish population constituted 30% of the citizens of the city. Over time, Lublin became the center of Jewish culture, religion and science. In the 1930s, the largest and most prestigious rabbinical school in the world was opened in Lublin. The town was called the Jewish Oxford and the Jerusalem of Poland. Go through a Memorial Trail of Lublin Jews, that commemorates places related to the tragic history of the Jewish community and marks the borders of the ghetto in Podzamcze and the last road of Lublin Jews to Umschlagplatz, from where about 28,000 people were transported to the death camp in Bełżec. Hear about a world that no longer exists. See the Lublin castle, the Grodzka Gate (called also the Jewish Gate), Chewra Nosim Synagogue - the only preserved pre-war Jewish temple, the Old Jewish Cemetery, and the former Academy of the Sages of Lublin – currently hotel and synagogue. Finally, visit the Majdanek State Museum – the former German Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp.
