One trip is not complete at Sachsenhausen when you don't visit the memorial and musuem sachsenhausen located at Str.d.nationen 22, 16515 Oranienburg where they also do offer a private day tour to this camp. This concentration camp gives you an educational knowledge of the 1963 German national concentration camp where you will be able to see the inmates jail cells, their bunk beds, the way the wash their feet and how their toilet look like. You will also be brought to the area where they once used to torture the inmates and the mortuary which will gives u some chills down your spine. The admission here is free of charge but I do recommend you to book the tour which is chargeable and gives you some very good info if not you will be walking around like an aimless duck not knowing what the rooms or items are. #celebratewithtrip #historical #nazicamp #german #concentrationcamp #educational #memorial #museum
