    • Oskar Schindler's Life before World War II.

Wasting no time, Schindler relocated to Kraków in October 1939, after Germany had invaded and started occupying Poland. “He moved into an area where a lot of factories and industries had been shut down or Aryanized,” Randall explains, referring to the Nazi policy of seizing Jewish-owned property and transferring it to non-Jews.
