Concentration Camp Visit Poznan, Poland

Visited this camp in Poznan. Without giving too much away to those who wish to visit, I'll summarise briefly. This was a former Polish Military Fort which was taken over by the Germans during WW2. they converted it into a concentration camp initially for Top Polish citizens. This was the first camp where they used a gas chamber for mass murder. We visited and it was empty, just us. We moved round the Fort reading as much as we could...not everything is in English but we used our phones for Google translate. It took about 2 hours to go round and cost 12zloty(about £2.50) to go in. Was harrowing, intriguing, informative and very worth a visit. WE SHOULD NEVER FORGET! #thingstodo #museums #citydaytours #poland #history #war
