Visiting the memorial and museum of the Auschwitz Concentration Camp is essential in understanding the horrors of the Second World War. This day trip from Warsaw offers insight into its history.
Auschwitz Day Trip
The ordeal of the Nazi concentration and extermination camps of World War II is beyond description. Experiencing the Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp memorial and museum is important to comprehend the extent of these tragic events. Pickup will occur at your hotel in Warsaw at the scheduled time, followed by a drive of approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes to O?wi?cim, southern Poland.
From 1940 to 1945, O?wi?cim witnessed horrendous acts committed by the Nazis. The Third Reich established concentration and extermination camps known as Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau in this area, later converted into the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum in 1947.
Your guided tour will explore the living areas of the inmates, including prison blocks and barracks, evoking a somber atmosphere. You'll also see the crematoriums, gas chambers, and the railway tracks that transported prisoners to their deaths.
This day trip provides a deeply moving experience, honoring those who suffered and lost their lives while educating visitors to ensure these events are never repeated. After the guided tour, the drive back to Warsaw will commence, returning to your hotel 15 hours after pickup.
