Overview

Visit the Sachsenhausen Memorial, which was the concentration camp closest to the Nazi capital and became a prototype on which all other camps were based. On this tour we will take you back to the prisoners' daily life and their struggle for survival on the basis of selected biographies. The prisoners were among others simply Communists, Jews and whoever else the Nazis considered their enemy. Just imagine that 200 000 inmates from 40 countries had been here. We will take a train departing 5 minutes after the official start time of the tour. To avoid missing the train, it is essential to arrive at least 15 minutes early. The guided tour starts on time and late arrivals cannot be accommodated. On the day of the guided visit, all participants are required to pay €3 in cash at the meeting point as a mandatory donation requested by the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial. The full amount will be donated to the Memorial. We recommend bringing something to eat and drink.

We continue to the former SS Officers’ Casino, a stark contrast to the prisoners’ reality. Through Tower A, the main gate, we see how the camp’s layout enforced total control. On the Roll Call Square, we hear about the long, punishing daily roll calls. In Barracks 38 and 39, we learn about the persecution of Jewish prisoners. The former camp kitchen, now a museum, shows documents and testimonies about forced labor and daily life. At the ruins of Station Z, the site of the gas chamber and crematoria, we confront the camp’s function as a place of extermination.
