First, we will go on a panoramic tour of the key monuments of the German capital. Then, we will proceed to the Sachsenhausen concentration camp.

At Sachsenhausen, we will take a guided tour to learn about the history of German concentration camps during Nazi rule, visiting the courtyards, barracks, and cells, and understanding the allocation of work and punishments for prisoners.
