Then you will go to visit "Auschwitz II Birkenau", which was the largest extermination camp. You will spend about 2 hours there, see the prisoner barracks, the famous death gate and the ruins of the largest gas chambers and crematoria. Before entering the camp I will explain to you exactly what to pay attention to and lend you a guidebook with a description of the places you will see and map of the camp. Then you will go to the "Auschwitz I" camp, where you will spend about 2 hours. This is now the main museum, where you will find a gate with the inscription "Arbeit Macht Frei," an exhibition housed in former prisoner blocks, a reconstructed first gas chamber with a crematorium, personal artifacts belonging to prisoners, and lots of stories about the place.
