Auschwitz-Birkenau: Subcamps Guided Tour with Private transportation

Explore the original sites that form the broader Auschwitz zone, where preserved buildings and exhibitions shed light on the horrific reality of the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp complex during its operation. This powerful visit takes you beyond the main camps to lesser-known but equally significant locations. One of the first stops is the Judenrampe, the infamous platform where brutal selections were made upon arrival. Here, victims were separated—those deemed fit for forced labor were sent into the camps, while others were led directly to the gas chambers. Families were torn apart forever, and personal belongings were looted, marking the beginning of unimaginable suffering for countless individuals.

The tour continues with a visit to the Penal Company of Women, a site of severe punishment, extreme living conditions, and horrifying events such as the massacre of French Jewish women. You will also explore KL Auschwitz III – Monowitz, which was closely linked with major chemical and pharmaceutical companies like BAYER, BASF, and AGFA. This location highlights the industrial exploitation of forced labor during the Holocaust. Another stop is KL Auschwitz – Jawischowitz Subcamp, where nearly 2,500 prisoners, including children, were held in inhumane conditions to serve the nearby coal mines. These visits offer a chilling yet essential look into how widespread and systemized the Nazi camp network was, providing a fuller understanding of the atrocities committed.
