On this day trip to the Mauthausen concentration camp, we will remember the events that occurred in one of the largest labor camps of the Third Reich.

Tour Details

At the specified time, we will meet at Albertinaplatz and depart Vienna for our day trip to the Mauthausen concentration camp.

During the journey, we will learn about the history of Mauthausen, which imprisoned around 200,000 people from across Europe between 1938 and 1945, with approximately half losing their lives. Mauthausen now serves as a reminder of a dark chapter in Austria's history.

After a 2-hour drive, we will arrive in Upper Austria and enter Mauthausen. An audio guide will be provided for exploring the site, including learning about life in the camp before its liberation in May 1945.

Visitors can explore facilities such as the training yard, barracks, kitchen, Wiener-Graben quarry, Death Stairs, SS quarters, and the gas chamber.

On the return trip to Vienna, there will be a stop at a restaurant for lunch. The tour will conclude at the meeting point after a total of 8.5 hours.
