Original Berlin Walks - Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial Tour

Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial Tour

In the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp, just outside Berlin, tens of thousands perished at the hands of the Nazis in conditions of appalling brutality. The camp became a training ground for the SS and the site of the headquarters of the whole concentration camp system. After the Nazis were defeated, the Soviets used the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp as a camp for their own political enemies. Thousands more were to perish over the next five years. The tour also includes inspiring accounts of the resistance of British, Soviet and Polish prisoners of war, as well as the story of the forgers ("Operation Bernhard") and touching individual fates of contemporary witnesses.
