I am so grateful for having had the opportunity to visit this important memorial. For years I read about who spent years in this camp, and now, since Mauthausen looks approximately the same as 80 years ago, I can better understand what was like \living\ here. The guide, Rika, was the best, and her Italian is really good! She explained everything in the best way possible, so I'm really satisfied with my visit. This memorial left me absolutely speechless and it was impossible not getting emotional while I was walking in there.

it's a really impressive place to visit, it's well maintained. The memorial park you'll walk through before you enter the camp is beautiful. You can also download an app where you can see a route and get an audio at different places in the camp that give will give you more information about the place you're standing at that moment. I'm glad I visited Mauthausen Memorial, it's a must, especially if you love history.

We will never forget. This is a place to remember ourselves every day to watch and stay vigilant about extremists. It's shocking to see what we can do as humans to ourselves in the name of a sick ideology and shallow beliefs. The crematorium and gas chamber is stunning to a point I don't have words to describe. I recommend the visit as it is also a reminder to be great full for what we have and being part of a free world, especially in Covid's time.

The camp is quite intact. Decently preserved with a map provided at the visitors center to guide you on the walking tour. Everything is marked clearly on the map and easy to find. Not a sprawling camp like Auschwitz but well worth the visit.

Heartbreaking experience but one that everyone should have. It includes an audio tour but only for 13 years and older. I shared the audio with my children but that would be up to you. The site has several buildings still in tact. The showers exposed the vulnerability of us as humans. The amount of pain caused here and with a town so close. The last building of the tour has been converted into a museum and is full of stories by both survivors and historical accounts. While the furnaces were dismantled by the SS prior to capture there is plenty here to understand the horrors man is capable of. The lower level is full of artifacts and accounts from prisoners held here. The “Stairs of Death” were fenced off to the quarry but still visible. Each area was well explained and brought reality to the suffering effecting so many. Very worth your time.

A very moving place to visit where people talk in hushed voices. It would be impossible to describe the horrors of this place and far too easy to blame on generations passed. Should be a place that every school student should visit.
