The Eagle Pharmacy
A nostalgic reminiscence of the Pod Orlem pharmacy that was located in the middle of Krakow's ghetto in plac Zgody (Concord square), which is now plac Bohaterów Getta (Krakow's Ghetto Heroes Square) and of its owner, Tadeusz Pankiewicz. Since 1941 it was a centre of aid for Jewish people. Pankiwicz gave shelter to the displaced Jews and provided them with necessary medicines, often risking his life.
