Overview
Concentration camps were a key instrument in the Nazi regime of terror, and the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp was unique. The camp was the first purpose-built concentration camp within the Third Reich and the closest one to Berlin. This tour is a complete visit to the memorial camp. We will look at how the concentration camps system developed from ad-hoc prisons into purpose-built facilities and look at the multitude of functions, crimes, experimentation, and mass murder that occurred.

Though most visits and tours are focussed on the main camp compound there is a considerable amount of walking, especially if you are walking to the camp from the station at Oranienburg. Dress for the weather and take appropriate footwear. Berlin and this part of Germany can experience extremely hot summers and cold winters and everything in between!
Dress respectfully.
You can bring some food and drink on the tour. There are numerous options in Oranienburg, in the train station and beyond as well as a supermarket along the way. There is a small café within the camp as well but this is passed quite early once you enter the camp.
