On your way to the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial, your tour guide will give you insightful information about the Nazi's concentration camp system.

Once you arrive to this former Nazi concentration camp, you will see the model layout of the camp, as your guide explains why it was built that way. Continue by entering the former camp, where you will be able to walk through and see the appellplatz (roll call square), the barracks, the pathology department, the Zellenbau (Gestapo prison), the extermination center and crematorium. Hear your guide share the stories about the daily lives of the prisoners, the brutal punishments and the tortures and murders. You will also learn about the last days of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp and its post-WWII use under the Soviets.

The Sachsenhausen-Oranienburg concentration camp situated just outside Berlin’s city limits, held over 200,000 prisoners during the Nazi reign. The camp became a school of brutality, used to train SS guards for work in other camps across Europe. It now stands as a memorial and reminder of the darkest days of Berlin's history.

After your tour finishes, you can stay and spend more time in the memorial museums on your own, or return with your guide on the train to central Berlin.
