Overview

Experience a profound and moving journey with this private, modern, air-conditioned bus tour to the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial. Accompanied by a professional, English-speaking guide, you’ll receive insightful commentary during the journey, providing essential historical context about the early years of the Nazi camp system.

Sachsenhausen, purpose-built in 1936, was the first concentration camp engineered to control and intimidate prisoners with chilling precision. Walk through the haunting remnants of this site and explore the old barracks, where the harrowing realities of daily life included forced labor, starvation, disease, torture, and death.

Visit the execution pit, a grim reminder of the unspeakable brutality endured by prisoners, where many were gassed, shot, or hanged by the SS guards. Continue through the small prison, pathology center, and infirmary, where inhumane experiments and murders took place, bearing witness to a dark chapter of human history.
