After checking in our hotel following our 14 hour flight, we took the subway S-Bahn to Dachau Concentration Camp. This was the only place we went where we got lost though it could have been because we had been up for many hours and we were tired . The directions we were given got us in the general area but not to the Camp and we had to walk quite a bit and eventually caught a bus, which fortunately are everywhere. I was quite surprised to find it in the middle of town, somehow i expected it to be out in the middle of nowhere. Dachau is one of the earliest concentration camps set up in Germany in 1933. The camp is surrounded by barbed wire and there are still guard towers standing. Everyone should see it. It was cold, eerie and the museum was very sad. You could spend a lot of time there looking at photos and reading. The only tip I have is to get good directions on this one....it was hard to find. Directions: Upper North Bavaria

I highly recommend touring Dachau with a walking tour guide, especially because of how knowledgable they are. My tour guide was a English fellow named Geoffrey. If I recollect the tour company is called Munich walks and it meets in front of the clock at the marienplatz in the morning. If I remember correctly the price is 18 euros per person and that covers the train ride over there and back. Also there isn't a charge to get into the camp. The tour takes approxiametely 4 hrs if not a little more

 Dachau Concentration Camp by Jasoninlondon A very sad place to visit. But very educational and a great way to pay your respects to the dead. You really get a sence of how bad things must of been when walking through this place where so many died during the hollocaust. Leave a Comment

 Dachau: The former SS concentration camp by d_d The Dachau concentration camp is very closed to Munich, and you can easily reach it by public transportation. If you have time, visit it: it's very instructive. For more info visit my Dachau page: http://www.virtualtourist.com/m/46e83/111d7/ Leave a Comment

 Dachau Concentration Camp by orlikins If you're interested in 20th century history, then you really should make your way here. Admission is free. You can visit the exhibitions and the actual crematorium & prisoner's bunks. There is also a prayer center on the site. Leave a Comment Directions: Dachau suburb, on the northern part of the S2 bahn and then get a bus from the station to the camp.

A suburb to the north, big enough to be served by several commuter trains, Dachau is a nice enough place to visit on its own merit, even if is mostly famous for the concentration camp nearby. We were very tempted to visit but realised that the six-year-old would not be up for it, so we'll wait until she is older... Leave a Comment

A visit to Dachau concentration camp. This doesn't sound the most cheerful of "sightseeing" trips but it is well worth the effort. Go to make sure that we never forget and that it never happens again. Leave a Comment

Dachau. Munich suburb, some 10 km north. Once Dachau was famous throght it's beautiful mansion, but then Hitler came to the power and the town became sinonym for holokaust. I'm sorry I couldn't visit the concentration camp museum due to lack of time cos athletic competition started but next time I'll be visiting Munich it'd be No.1 station on my journey. Leave a Comment Address: Mariaplatz, then S-bahn north.

by ucbwalker Dachau, the concentration camp just outside of the city. It was built for 5,000, and when it was liberated by the Allies there were 31,000 occupants. A chilling museum on the grounds documents the horrors of Nazism, including graphic displays about their medical experiments. The crematorium is still intact, and one of the bunkers has been reconstructed (the originals were all razed after the liberation because they were thought to be filled with disease). This sign says 'Work Makes You Free'; it greeted incoming prisoners. Leave a Comment
