Dachau Memorial Site: Tour from Munich

This tour takes you from central Munich to the historic Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site. With specially trained guides, you will explore the monument to one of the cruelest crimes in history. Your guide will take you through the history of the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site Tour over the years and explain how Dachau Concentration Camp grew into a system of nearly 100 subcamps. In its 12 years of existence, more than 200,000 people from across Europe were imprisoned and an estimated 41,500 were killed. On April 29, 1945, American forces liberated the main concentration camp at Dachau and ended more than a decade of atrocities and brutality. Throughout Nazi-occupied Europe, Allied armies ended the reign of terror and barbarism of the Third Reich. The liberation of the concentration camps revealed to the entire world how incredibly cruel Nazi Germany's concentration camp system was.
