Located in Upper Austria, the Mauthausen Concentration Camp was one of the largest forced-labor camp complexes established by the National Socialist regime. From 1938 to 1945, more than 200,000 people from across Europe were imprisoned in Mauthausen and its network of subcamps, where harsh conditions and systematic persecution resulted in extremely high mortality rates. Today, the site serves as a memorial dedicated to those who suffered and died under the regime’s policies.

Upon arrival, travelers explore the preserved grounds of the Mauthausen Memorial with an audio guide. Key areas include the Wiener-Graben quarry, the Stairway of Death, the former SS quarters, the camp prison, and the gas chamber. The visit also includes the Mauthausen Museum, where rotating exhibitions and the Room of Names provide additional context about the victims and the camp’s history.

This experience offers a reflective opportunity to understand the scale of the atrocities committed here and the continued importance of remembrance for future generations.
