Lenin's steelwork in Nowa Huta was one of the most important factories in communist Poland. First, because of the huge ideological project behind it; secondly, because of the anti-communist activity of its workers. Nowa Huta – an ideal communist city built next to Kraków in the middle of the Cold War – was an attempt to form a new kind of human: not homo sapiens any longer, but homo sovieticus instead. We will meet in the middle of the central square (plac centralny). Visiting the ideal city, its architecture, and sharing history will finish by going inside the spectacular church of Lord's Arc, which is known as the most beautiful modern church in Poland. Religion was supposed to not fit the communist topic, but that is exactly the point! The struggle for permission to build their own church in Nowa Huta is the founding story of its inhabitants' resistance to communism. Tour will finish nearby Teatr Ludowy tram stop. Nowa Huta is the best place in Poland to learn more about the communist period and the nuclear threat. Finally, this was Albert Einstein who said: "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."
