Poland: Oskar Schindler's Enamel Factory

On 12th April I got two postcards from Poland.

One of them comes from Oskar Schindler's Enamel Factory. Oskar Schindler's Enamel Factory is a former metal item factory. It is one of the places where Oskar Schindler saved the lives of Jews during the Holocaust by employing them and now houses a museum. Shown on the card is a wall of Kraków Ghetto shown at the museum. 

Two stamps were used here. The left stamp celebrates the Centenary of the Civil Service in Poland (issued 17-02-2022) and the right stamp honours Poland's Support for Ukraine (issued 25-03-2022). During the still ongoing war waged by Russia against its neighbour Poland became one of Ukraine's most important supporters. 


Thank You very much Marcel!
