Sachsenhausen Memorial, located about an hour's drive north of Berlin, holds the remnants of Germany's first large concentration camp. A total of 200,000 prisoners were held during the camp's years of operation from 1936 to 1945, and tens of thousands of people died. Sascha Klepzig, a German student, takes groups through the tree-lined site.
