Sono molto contenta di aver fatto questa esperienza, che seppur dolorosa visto l’argomento chi ha una certa sensibilità può un po’ risentirsi dentro, è giusto ripercorrere quei luoghi di tortura, che comunque sia la guerra non è mai bella .. la guida Francesca molto preparata e brava.

Experiencia única, pudimos conocer toda la historia del campo gracias al trabajo de nuestro guía Carlos de Ávila. Además de realizar una breve introducción histórica y explicarnos todo sobre Sachsenhausen, nos recomendó lugares que visitar y sitios donde comer. El único pero que le pongo a la visita es no poder disfrutar de más tiempo para poder realizar fotografías y darte cuenta del lugar en el que estás. Gran trabajo de Carlos de Ávila.

La visita guidata al campo di concentramento è stata interessantissima e ovviamente anche triste per gli eventi accaduti. Fa riflettere molto! Tutto spiegato nel migliore dei modi dalla nostra guida Fabio Nigro preparato e competente. Grazie Fabio anche per i consigli sui ristoranti fuori dalle solite rotte turistiche e che abbiamo provato la sera stessa! Se andate a Berlino la visita guidata a Sachsenhausen è una tappa obbligatoria!
