Consists of two parts, the museum in the main building and the former camp grounds where you by bus (2.7 km). This is included in the price. The museum is set in a beautiful way, fascinating, shocking and inviting for children to discover. Children can do a search with stickers, our adolescents of 14 and 12 there were very by enthralled.

Amazing place, I do suggest having a bike and lots of spare time during your visit for it is an enormous walk to see everything. But it is a place that is worth visiting to see a little history.

Definitely worth the visit, the guide tells interesting stories about people who lived or passed through the camp during the second world war along with what happened to the camp after the world war ended.

The site is very interesting but there is only for Dutch and German speaking tourist. Lots of information is not available in other languages. It is a pity.
