This is a place you have to visit in your life. The horrors that took place here are hard to believe untill you see it with your own eyes. The guided tours are good and available in various languages.

Whilst it is a study in human cruelty, it is vital that you visit the camp to understand and to make sure that it doesn't happen again. Go in the morning before the crowds so you have time to reflect

Also, if you go by yourself with guidebook, you will roam and discover more places (tour only goes through some of buildings available to public - all of them are numbered ????????).

Free entry without tour guide before 10am or after 5pm. They only have a select number of these tickets. Buy the guide book from the bookstore, it tells you EVERYTHING you need to know for 25pln

It's not possible to find words for this place. What I can say it that we had a very nice female tourguide who also told some personal stories regarding family members who died in the camp.
