Proceed by entering the former camp, where you can walk through and see the appellplatz (roll call square), the barracks, the pathology department, the Zellenbau (Gestapo prison), the extermination center, and the crematorium.
Listen as your guide shares stories about the daily lives of the prisoners, the brutal punishments, and the tortures and murders. You will also learn about the final days of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp and its post-WWII use under the Soviets.
- Gedenkstatte und Museum Sachsenhausen - The Sachsenhausen-Oranienburg concentration camp, located just outside Berlin’s city limits, held over 200,000 prisoners during the Nazi era. The camp served as a training ground for SS guards destined for other camps across Europe. It now stands as a memorial and a reminder of Berlin’s darkest days.
