Overview

This tour takes you from Warsaw to Majdanek Concentration Camp Museum, located on the outskirts of Lublin. Established by Nazi Germany in 1941, Majdanek served as both a concentration and extermination camp. Due to the rapid advance of the Soviet army in 1944, the camp was captured almost intact, making it the best-preserved Holocaust camp in Europe.

Traveling with a knowledgeable, English-speaking guide helps you understand not only historical facts, but also the wider context of German Nazi occupation and the Holocaust in occupied Poland. Majdanek is visited far less frequently than Auschwitz, allowing for a calm, unhurried, and respectful experience.

The visit focuses on authentic locations, including original barracks, gas chambers, crematoria, execution sites, barbed wire fencing, and guard towers. Exhibitions inside preserved buildings present historical documents, photographs, and personal testimonies, with time to walk, reflect, and absorb the site at your own pace.
