Visit the Sachsenhausen Memorial and learn the unfortunate history of the concentration camp that was built at this site in 1936. Pay your respects to the 200,000 prisoners that were detained there and gain a deeper understanding of the cruel crimes that took place in Germany during WWII.
Meet your guide at your hotel and, depending on your selected option, ride public transport or a private car to the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial. Pass through the camp gates and beneath the chilling ‘Arbeit Macht Frei’ sign used at all camps.
Inside the memorial site, spend time at the Jewish barracks, the kitchen and laundry block, the roll call area, the camp prison, the pathology and hospital buildings, and the execution grounds. Learn how Sachsenhausen was also used by the Soviets as a prison camp after 1945.
Listen to an in-depth commentary from your guide throughout the tour and take a short break for refreshments. At the end of the tour, your guide will accompany you back to Berlin.
