Protests Against Gentrification In Krakow's Kazimierz District

KRAKOW, POLAND - MARCH 1: A protester holds a sign reading 'REFUGEES WELCOME TOURISTS GO HOME!' during a 'protest festival' in the Kazimierz district of Krakow, Poland, on March 1, 2026. The demonstration aims to halt the transformation of three historic, church-owned buildings into a luxury hotel by developer De Silva Haus S.A., which activists argue will further the gentrification of the historic Jewish quarter and lead to the displacement of long-term residents and local businesses.
