The Mauthausen concentration camp memorial is an important and moving memorial. An exhibition inside provides information about the terrible events that happened during World War II. Monuments and sculptures can be seen outside. The quarry, the barracks and the barbed wire fences are a reminder that such atrocities must never be repeated.

You get goosebumps when you're here. The building looks like a foreign body in this scenically beautiful and idyllic area. It's surreal to stand in front of it and imagine the atrocities and crimes committed here. In memory of the many victims, the history of the concentration camp is brought closer to the visitors.

Unbelievable what people are capable of, something like this must never happen again, we as future generations have the responsibility to convey what is happening to our descendants!

You need a couple of hours for the tour. Take a fully charged cell phone if possible as you download the guide to your phone. A nice canteen is onsite.
Accessible from Linz on the 361 bus. About 30 mins and Euro 6.50 each way.
