More than 100,000 Jews, communists, intellectuals, gypsies and homosexuals were killed by Nazis between 1936 and 1945 in this concentration camp. Some of the buildings have been preserved in their original form including barracks, and a pathology department where Nazis performed medical experiments on the inmates.
We (family of 4 adults) booked online and met the tour guides at the meeting point on time and were met by very pleasant and caring organiser who directed us to Pip our guide for the day. Right from the outset we got good advice/pre planning tips on the day ahead and as the group got bigger Pip introduced herself to everyone & made sure she got to know a little about each of them. Fast forward to our time on site and Pip made sure the group were given a good insight into the Camp and what happened there, before, during and after WW2, to say her depth of knowledge is excellent is an understatement and equally her ability to contextualise was spot on. Pip was also not afraid to inject some appropriate social commentary without being opinionated, all in all a memorable tour and experience and very well put together, top marks for Pip in all aspects of her role on the day

Really touching and it makes you think about the terrible things happened during that time. The tour is quite long and everything is outdoor. You can take the audio guide and we highly recommend it cause you understand better everything you visit. The camp is free of charge and you pay only the audio guide and the map (3€) . The location is a little bit out of the city centre but you can easily reach it with the means of transport.
