About this experience
On this private day trip from Berlin, you will visit the Sachsenhausen concentration camp, established in 1936. The camp was initially built by internees from other facilities and was the first constructed under SS Leader Heinrich Himmler. It served as a model for other camps, characterized by its secure layout and harsh treatment of inmates, with over 200,000 individuals detained there from 1936 to 1945. Initially housing political prisoners, it later included Jews, Sinti and Roma, homosexuals, and others labeled as 'anti-socials.' This tour provides insights into the severe conditions faced by prisoners, culminating in a visit to the National Memorial, established in 1961, where you can pay your respects before returning to Berlin. This experience is suitable for those interested in history and remembrance, but may not be appropriate for younger audiences due to its sensitive content.
