Third Reich + Dachau Concentration Camp Tour
Meet at the Munich Central Train Station to begin the tour of Germany's Third Reich and the Dachau Concentration Camp. Learn about key locations in Adolf Hitler's ascent to power and the origins of Nazism in Germany and Europe.
Explore Munich's Old Town to see historic sites including the building where Hitler joined the Nazi Party and the former Gestapo headquarters, as well as the location of the Beer Hall Putsch of 1923.
After 2 hours 30 minutes in Munich, you'll have one hour of free time before heading to Königsplatz to take the train to Dachau, which takes about 30 minutes to reach the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site.
Upon arrival, participate in a 5-hour guided tour of the camp and museum. Dachau was the first Nazi concentration camp in Germany during the Holocaust and served as a model for other camps. The tour includes photographs, documents, reconstructed cell blocks, the crematorium, and administration headquarters. Learn about figures linked to the site, such as Heinrich Himmler, the camp's founder.
Finally, take the train back to Munich to conclude the tour.
