达豪集中营

Everything is very well preserved with detailed information. Lot of pictures with extensive history.You can take audio guide but there is lot of information written everywhere. Don't forget to see 22 minutes video there in Hall for a comprehensive history.

The "excellent" rating is for the gravitas this horror of a place has on the heart and head. Never have I had such negative emotions anywhere. Visiting the showers, ovens and other horrible sites of this damned historical spot, it was so difficult to remain in Germany during my brief trip. How could this otherwise beautiful and bright country fall to a monster? It was fortunate that I was the first and only person visiting the camp that morning. At one point I had to scream out an expletive in memory of those whose lives were forever changed, including some members of my family (albeit at other camps). It's a must-see, but it will taint your trip and make you question a lot more about humanity the rest of your life.

I am very moved by the German people to place such an emphasis on memorialising this place of horror and suffering. Also, the groups of young people I saw being taught the significance of Dachau and the brutality of the Nazis gives hope that this chapter of world history will remain unchanged.

Very important part of the world's history. Sad place that takes you back to the black days. Must visit. 'Never again. Never forget'. Very close to Munich by metro and then by bus 726.

Good half day trip. We got to Dachau from Munich by train and then a 5 min bus trip out to the camp - was an easy trip. Entrance is free and the cheap audio guides in various languages are very in depth and better than going with a tour group in my opinion as you can take everything at your own pace. The museum was excellent and the movie was definitely worth watching. Overall a not to be missed experience if you're in Munich.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Yes I know its 70 years later but NEVER underplay what happened here and at other camps. Visit and find out more about the terrible things that happened here. I challenge you to keep a dry eye when you hear about the terrible barbarities. And after you have taken all of that in, take a step back and try to comprehend that what you read about and what you saw was "only" a concentration camp. Much much worse happened in extermination camps. The realization of that is truly chilling !

Diana, our tour guide for the day, was fantastic and was very knowledgable on the topic of the camp, as well as understanding of how difficult it could be for some visitors to stomach. She gave us plenty of time to adapt to the reality that the concentration camp was, and also had shared a lot of information about what the prisoners, and even some of the SS, had experienced.

If you have only listened or read little about what the concentration camps are about, this will be an eye opening tour. It is so sobering to learn about what the victims have to endure, it is not surprising to see visitors tearing up just reading the descriptions on the exhibits.I did the Dachau tour with Sandeman, and our guide, Kai, did an excellent job of reminding us to not confuse the Germans and the Nazis. The German government did a great job coming to terms with the past, and turning history into lesson. Governments elsewhere should learn from this.

We toured Dachau for over 3 hours with just the English headsets. The exhibits are well organized and allow you to vividly picture the camp. I highly recommend anyone that comes to Munich to visit Dachau. We took the train from Munich and then the bus to the camp. We speak no German and were able to navigate the logistics and the camp easily.

Very moving. Everything is explained in a factual nature. No politics or opinions. Requires a lot of walking to see the entire camp.

This is the first time I have visited a POW camp.My wife and I went with our Daughter who lives in Freising near Munich.She has been a few times now and sees and reads something different every time ,This was the 1st camp to be opened in Germany.many true life experiences of the atrocities very well preserved .It took us about 40 min drive from Freising .It's a must if your in the area there is a café and toilets.We just gave a donation there was no charge.

This is the first time I am visiting a concentration camp.Practically speaking, Dachau is very well organized and maintained. They have tried to show samples of originals, from the record books to utensils and also hung up huge pictures and gives detailed information of the activities which had happened there. There is quite a walk within the camp and like many have suggested, one should go either alone or with like minded adult(s). This is more a place for solidarity and self reflection. It humbles you, it makes you think on the atrocities which fellow human beings committed. it is a cold, shocking and numbing place and I think one should visit such places at least once to be brought back to harsh realities, to understand how cruel mankind can be...people like us and reflect from both sides- the ones who performed the atrocities and on the other side an educated and civilized group of people who had never imagined that their neighbors and countrymen would do this to them

It's a extremely moving place. There is a lot of information and history. Germany is very brave to be telling the world that something like this happened on their land and that they will make sure nothing of the sorts ever happens again!Never again!!

This is the first time I have been to a concentration camp or experienced anything like this. It was very moving. There was a lot of real life stories, photographs etc, this is very informative but also extremely upsetting too. Tours are available but we just walked around ourselves. You could spend hours & hours here. Take the S2 train from Munich and then the 726 which takes you to just outside the entrance.

You can learn about the history elsewhere- I'll try to stick to practical things. I took the train from downtown Munich & caught a local bus with ease and it was cheap. Transit is well marked and comes often. Don't bother with a tour. This is a place you need to see and experience at your own pace. Do bother with stopping in the visitors center and getting the hand held virtual tour guide. It has tons of great information you can use when you want it. I was there in December. Most everything, but the museum is outdoors. Dress in layers and wear good walking shoes. Bring a case of tissues and maybe a candle or flowers. All of the barracks were torn down, but they have a couple reconstructions so you can imagine conditions. The showers and ovens are still there. It is awful. It is the most awful place I have ever been, somehow even more so than Auschwitz-Birkenau. I think it made a greater impression on me because you are not on a tour surrounded by people and can move about at your own pace, reflecting on the horrors that occurred here. There are multiple chapels of different denominations where you can visit and reflect. The museum is extensive and so full of information, you cannot take it all in in one day. I spent 8 hours here and got kicked out half way through the museum (which I saved for the end), but I was so overwhelmed by that point I had lost all sense of myself. I was alone and just barely missed a bus so I had to wait a half hour for the next one with two groups of people (7 of us waiting together in a bus shelter) and we were all pretty silent. We stomped our feet and such to keep warm in the dark, snowy night and would just occasionally glance and nod in solidarity. You don't feel the cold so much after seeing Dachau.
