Learn the terrible tale of Stutthof Concentration Camp, the first and longest operating concentration camp in Polish territory. Hear the story of place where thousands of people from more than 25 countries were tortured and murdered until its liberation in 1945. Stutthof concentration camp was the first and the longest operating concentration camp in the territory of Poland. It had been established in order to exterminate Jewish and Polish Intelligence, mainly from the Pomerania and the Free City of Gdask. Built in 1939 and initially intended for approximately 3 000 people, this camp gradually became the place of torment and slaughter for over 110 thousand prisoners from 26 countries, most of whom were tortured, forced to work or died in gas chambers. Stutthof Concentration Camp is currently open for visitors. Since the exposition is quite drastic, it may be visited only by persons who are 13 or over. The trip lasts 5 hours and the offer includes the entrance ticket to the museum as well as guided exploring of the former Stutthof area – the old and new camp quarters, the main commander’s villa, gas chambers, crematorium and the monument to its victims. Additionally, it is also possible to watch a film about the camp.

This was a great trip with a guide with deep knowledge and a very good and accurate way of telling the stories abaut Stutthof from the start to the end. Mike (our Guide) told the whole story, the awful handling of the people, how the camp was runned, and the strategies for survival was for the people in Stutthof.

The tour was very well-organized and professional. The driver arrived on time, was friendly and was giving us many interesting information about the region during the ride to our destination. The visit at the camp was an unforgettable experience and the guide was great. We have learned a lot about the history of this historical place. We would definitely recommend Tours in Gdansk - Local Tour Operator and will use them again when returning to Gdansk.
Dear Anita Thank you for your review. Michal
Mike was an amazing guide, very knowledgeable and kept us interested for the whole tour. Would highly recommend his tours
Thank you for your review and recommendation. Michal
If you are interested in history or just a really humbling experience, this concentration camp will open your eyes to struggles of the people that was imprisoned here. If you coming in the winter months make sure you dress warm. The cold adds to the experience. If you are in the Gdansk area this is a must see. Having a guided tour definitely helps to get a full concrete experience. Your tour guide was on time to pick us up and shared so much about the local area as well. The beach is close and the shops have some great homemade ice cream. Hope you all enjoy as much as our family did.
Thank you for review :)
