Sachsenhausen Memorial Guided History Tour

This guided tour takes you through the Sachsenhausen Memorial, on the site of the former Sachsenhausen concentration camp north of Berlin. An English or German-speaking guide walks you through the grounds, and your ticket includes a donation to the Camp Memorial. Sachsenhausen opened in 1936 and also served as a training site for concentration camp staff posted across Germany.

Your guide takes you into the original barracks to show how prisoners lived, and walks you through the memorial areas, including the site of the gallows, explaining what each part of the camp was used for. Along the way, you hear the stories of individuals who were held at the camp and how they held on to hope through the hardship, alongside the wider facts of how the camp operated. More than 200,000 people passed through Sachsenhausen over the years, and tens of thousands died there.

The visit is a walking tour across the memorial grounds, with no transport involved. Rayna's local team handles your booking and arrangements and is available for support before and after your visit.
