This is the museum located in the former factory of Oskar Schindler in Kraków. The factory had been on this spot for sometime before Schindler got control via a bankruptcy court. The factory produced enamelware and was originally called Pierwsza Małopolska Fabryka Naczyń Emaliowanych i Wyrobów Blaszanych "Rekord". He renamed the factory Deutsche Emaillewaren Fabrik (DEF) With the help of his German-speaking Jewish accountant Itzhak Stern, Schindler obtained around 1,000 Jewish forced labourers to work there.

My channel on you tube : http://www.youtube.com/alanheath is one of the most prolific from Poland. I have produced over 1,700 original films. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects

Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!

There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- http://www.ceepackaging.com - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.

Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!

Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!

Alan, every time I look for a WW2 video it is yours that comes up and without doubt yours are the best. I love the way that you talk us through the videos as it makes one feel as though one is there with you.

So do you live in Poland or England?

Keep up the great work :)

Great video, we also got a lot from this museum and from walking around the old ghetto streets which motivated us to visit Płaszów which was harrowing but amazing.

@AlanRembach Hello Alan! I had a feeling it was you when I saw there was a message for this video! I think this museum is great and very fair too. I could have spent much longer there.
