Tip:


It is only 4 złotys to purchase this map of Jewish Lublin in the 1930s. It is also sold at the Lublin Tourist Information Office in the Stare Miasto. I bought one of these maps and find it the most useful way to get a handle on the streets of the Old CIty and of the now destroyed Jewish quarter.
