Go back in time with a visit to the Auschwitz & Birkenau Memorial and Museum. Experience and learn about one of the greatest tragedies in the history of humankind with a certified English-speaking guide.
Auschwitz 1
Get picked up from Krakow and board a comfortable bus for the 1.5-hour ride to the Auschwitz-Birkenau complex. Upon arrival, your local guide will show you around the site and tell you about its tragic history. Walk through the gate marked "Arbeit Macht Frei" to step into Auschwitz 1, the original concentration camp. Here, tour the barracks, view black and white photographs taken while the camp was in operation, see the prison cells, and learn some harrowing statistics about the people held captive here, mostly Jews.
Birkenau
Next, visit Birkenau which sits a few kilometers apart from Auschwitz 1. The first thing you will notice here is it’s massive size. This camp was built in 1941 to house the huge number of deportees from Europe. In January 1945, the Germans blew up most of the barracks and the crematoriums to hide their crimes, but is still well worth the visit. Spend sometime here listening to how the Nazi "Final Solution to the Jewish Question" took place.
