• Audio Guide iOS(DE), iOS(EN) 2,99 €

We will have a couple of minutes for everyone to explore the Gedenkstätte individually. There is an official Audio-Guide app in the iOS AppStore (see above), Android users may rent an iPod at the entrance (more than 3,- € IIRC). Then we'll take a look at the Glockenturm monument and the »Straße der Nationen« south of the camp. We will cross a former military area waling down a sunny hill towards the next bus station or the Hauptbahnhof.
