Panstwowe Muzeum Auschwitz-Birkenau
Devoted to the memory of those who lost their lives in the Holocaust, Panstwowe Muzeum Auschwitz-Birkenau displays arguably the most devastating concentration camp in world history. Take a guided tour to learn about the history of the camp, which served as the major site of the so-called "Final Solution to the Jewish question." More than a million people died here between 1942 and 1944, most in the camp's gas chambers. Finish your visit at the train ramp where thousands of prisoners from all over Europe disembarked for the final time.

I am giving five stars mainly due to the fact that many people and organisations have taken concrete steps to ensure people don't forget what happened here during WWII. This place is a reminder of the darkest side of human nature, to torture and kill another human for the heck of it.. I would recommend this visit to everyone, and to soak in the history that took place not so long ago.

Very impressive. Buying cards on line seems handy, but we didn't get them via the mail after payment .at the museum we had to wait for more then 1 hour to have them printed, so we were 5 minutes late....but it was worth it.

Interesting site of historic atrocities. Definitely a must see on any trip to Krakow.

Impressive. The guide said. Now there are 4 times less people than before the pandemic. Please book a guide. You will learn so much more.

A place to visit, once in the life. I did it twice, and I will probably do it again, because we all need to remember, and time by time we need to refresh our memories. I suggest a visit to all the students, even if in some way it can be an uncomfortable visit, or maybe exactly for this reason. The experience is unforgettable You need to book an online ticket. The access is free, but they want to avoid overflow of people. When you enter, be respectful of the place. It is a place where thousands of people were suffering, we need to remember where we are
