Sachsenhausen Memorial and Museum

Despite the lack of advertising, the camp is quite well presented with a number of excellent exhibits, especially the newer post-GDR sections. Some of the older exhibits, however, are only in German (and occasionally Russian). Nearly all the buildings on the site are authentic-looking reconstructions, though many old building sites are only marked by stones. Entrance to the camp and to all the exhibitions is free. Many exhibitions are closed on Mondays but the camp remains open. A small shop by the entrance stocks mainly books about concentration camps and the Nazi era. You may also purchase pamphlets about KZ Sachsenhausen in several languages from here (a token €0.50 each).
