Berlin: Sachsenhausen — The Camp That Built the Nazi System
See more
MORE THAN A MEMORIAL VISIT: Half-day tours of Sachsenhausen are common. Specialist ones are not. We give you 3 hours on site with a WWII historian — long enough to cover what most tours rush, including the chapters most leave out entirely. The Soviet special camp that operated here until 1950.
WHAT YOU WILL SEE: You'll begin outside the camp at the SS Inspectorate, the building where the entire Nazi camp system was administered — Auschwitz, Dachau, Buchenwald, Ravensbrück. Most tours walk past that building. We start there.
You'll walk through Tower A gate, beneath the words "Arbeit Macht Frei", the shoe testing track where prisoners marched 40km daily. You'll stand at Station Z — the execution trench, the gas chamber, the crematorium. You'll see the Soviet special-camp memorial and hear the post-1945 story that almost no other tour tells.
