Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp

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.

The place must be visited when in Berlin. It is located approximately 33 km from Berlin. The camp was primarily used for incarcerating political prisoners during 1936 to 1945. The gallows, barracks, dispensary for the prisoners brings out the sad and depressing era of modern history.
The audio guide provided at 2-3 Euro is useful but a short video of 15 minutes giving a brief overview of the camp would make the tour more enlightening.

Musee de Sachsenhausen

Reviewed By BigHugh51 - Adelaide, Australia

Whilst on a walking tour of the concentration camp, we were given some time to have a look around this small museum. It had a number of fascinating exhibits relating to the period when the camp was under Nazi and Soviet control.
The visit to this museum was a helpful adjunct to our tour of the concentration camp. It enriched our understanding of the horrors experienced by many who were held in custody at this terrible place. Anyone who visits the camp should take the time to have a look around this museum.

Tier- und Freizeitpark Germendorf

Reviewed By HaraldfromBerlin - Berlin, Germany

This place needs to be seen to be believed! It is a 3-in-1 dinosaur park, petting zoo and funfair which ensures a varied and fun-filled day for the entire family, not just kids.
The prices are very modest (in some cases idiculously cheap), even when factoring in fares for some of the additional offerings.

Oranienburg Palace

Reviewed By kr0elle - Berlin, Germany

Inside the castle, you won't see a lot about what the castle looked like from the inside. It's merely a museum of the family history of the Hohenzollern and Nassau-Oranien dynasties with lots of works of art depicting their members. The way it is presented could be more enthusiastic (not just a small white sign in each room). Entrance fee is fair.

TURM ErlebnisCity Oranienburg

Reviewed By SharvinNP - Almere, The Netherlands

A nice swimming pool overall! It was quite small, however they had a nice outdoor swimming pool, a jacuzzi, and two nice water slides. The main pool also features waves that come every 10-15 minutes or so. The highest water slide is the most exciting!
I recommend you to give it a try. Good swimming pool!
