Discover a lesser-known but deeply moving part of Auschwitz history on this alternative guided tour.

This experience does not include a visit to Auschwitz I or Auschwitz II-Birkenau, but instead focuses on important surrounding sites connected to the history of the victims and the development of the camp complex.

Visit the memorial to the final victims of Auschwitz and a mass grave of 700 prisoners shot during the camp evacuation in January 1945. Explore the area of the so-called “camp extension,” which housed new SS barracks, the last women’s camp, and the site of the final public execution.
