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.

Will was an amazing guide. He gave excellent details of the history of Sachsenhausen, personalized with narratives from survivors, and keyed in on the intersection with the German political and social history. I have quite a bit of knowledge of this history and was impressed by how accessible he made the entire experience. I highly recommend anybody with an interest of this dark time to book this tour!
Worth it!

Bit rushed. Too much time talking about films and documentaries rather than the facts. Also on the way the commentary from our guide Maria jumped about too much over the years events and became confusing.
