Thank you Roshana for the tour. Without you the experience would have not been so informative. :) I highly recommend!
5Sachsenhausen tour with guide Roshana
Our guide, Roshana, was incredibly well-informed and gave us a really great understanding of the background and context of the camp and the system it was a part of without ever letting us lose site of the horrors that took place there. Could not recommend highly enough. Cearbhall and Reuben.

About Berlin
Berlin is Germany's creative, open-minded capital, where landmarks of a turbulent history stand among art, green parks and legendary nightlife.
The Brandenburg Gate is the city's symbol, close to the glass-domed Reichstag and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Fragments of the Berlin Wall survive, most strikingly at the East Side Gallery, a long stretch covered in murals, and at the Bernauer Strasse memorial, while Checkpoint Charlie marks the most famous former crossing point.
