Stefana Czarnieckiego 3 in Kraków, Poland, in the municipal district of Podgórze.

Prisoners who completed the recovery program work with mentally and physically disabled clients.During World War II, it was a Nazi German prison, a place of secret detention and torture of Polish members of the Resistance, Armia Krajowa. It is memorialized as a notorious site of martyrdom during the German occupation of Poland. The prison facility had a Gestapo station attached to it.The prison was initially incorporated within the borders of the Kraków Ghetto when that district was created by the Nazis in March 1941; however, in the redistricting of June 1942 (following mass deportations of the Ghetto population) the whole street was placed outside the confines of the Ghetto.

The Kraków Ghetto was one of five major metropolitan Nazi ghettos created by Germany in the new General Government territory during the German occupation of Poland in World War II. It was established for the purpose of exploitation, terror, and persecution of local Polish Jews. The ghetto was later used as a staging area for separating the "able workers" from those to be deported to extermination camps in Operation Reinhard. The Ghetto was liquidated between June 1942 and March 1943, with most of its inhabitants deported to the Belzec extermination camp as well as to Płaszów slave-labor camp, and Auschwitz concentration camp, 60 kilometres (37 mi) rail distance.

Bohaterów Getta Square (known as Mały Rynek until around 1880, Zgody Square from 1917 to 1948) is a square located in the Podgórze district of Kraków. Its first name translates as "Small Market Square", the second as "Square of Concord", and the current one as "Heroes of the Ghetto Square". Between 1941 and 1943, it was located within the boundaries of the Kraków Ghetto. It served as a place of concentration for the Jewish population prior to their deportation to concentration camp. At number 18 operated the Eagle Pharmacy, run by Tadeusz Pankiewicz, the only non-Jewish resident of the ghetto. In 2005, the square was redeveloped; among other changes, the bus station building was demolished and rebuilt from scratch. After the reconstruction was completed, a monument commemorating the Kraków Ghetto and the Jews of Kraków was unveiled in the square. The memorial consists of 70 chairs. Its creators, Piotr Lewicki and Kazimierz Łatak, were inspired by a passage from Tadeusz Pankiewicz’s book "The Kraków Ghetto Pharmacy", in which the author described furniture being carried out into the square during the clearing of houses after the last ghetto residents had been deported. In 2006, the memorial received a special mention in the European Prize for Urban Public Space competition, and in 2011 it was awarded the Gold Award in the Urban Quality Award 2011 competition.

A frequent customer was, e.g., "Bikkur Cholim" charity.In March 1941, the Germans established a ghetto in Podgórze for Kraków's Jews, Pankiewicz's pharmacy was the only one within its borders and its proprietor was the only Pole with rights to stay in it.The Jews that lived in the ghetto chose the pharmacy as the place for conspiratorial meetings. Among them were: writer Mordechai Gebirtig, painter Abraham Neumann, Dr Julian Aleksandrowicz, neurologist Dr Bernhard Bornstein, Dr Leon Steinberg and pharmacists: Emanuel Herman, Roman Imerglück. Soon it also became a source of various resources and medicaments, which helped in avoiding deportation: hair dyes used for rejuvenating the appearance, luminal (fenobarbital) used to calm children while hidden, smuggled in luggage beyond ghetto.During the bloody displacement at the Plac Zgody in 1942, Pharmacy personnel issued free medicines and dressings while its recesses areas were used as shelters for saving Jews from deportation to extermination camps.Pankiewicz and his assistants Irena Drozdzikowska, Aurelia Danek and Helena Krywaniuk were liaisons between Jews in the ghetto and beyond it, passing the information and smuggling food. They also were depositaries of valuables entrusted to them by deported Jews in the last moments before leaving the ghetto.
