Mauthausen Concentration Camp

Mauthausen Concentration Camp: by far most sobering stop of the trip. An unfortunate black mark on the world's history.The rather fitting water feature in the visitors center.
There were several monunments to those that died here.

The rock quarry where the prisoners were worked.
The 'stairs of death'.



I don't / can't explain these things. For more info, please visit:
