History
Sachsenhausen was established in 1936 near Oranienburg as a concentration camp and later served as both a training center for the SS and a site of forced labor; the memorial preserves barracks, watchtowers and educational exhibits.
Conservation
The memorial operates as both a site of remembrance and education — visitors are asked to stay on marked paths, respect artifacts and support the site through donations and responsible behavior.
