KAZIMIERZ
But there's one more place in Kraków that is fascinating in every respect, and that's Kazimierz, the Jewish quarter, founded in the 14th century as a separate borough. Kazimierz is the world's second biggest and most valuable group of Jewish historic buildings after Prague's Josefov. There are synagogues here (the oldest, the Remuh, dates back to the 15th century, with an adjacent 16th-century Jewish cemetery, and a cluster of historic houses.
