"Arbeit macht frei" is a German phrase meaning "work makes (you) free."

This was the gate at the entry of the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp through which thousands of people of many races were marched by the Nazis to their death. I left through these gates shocked at the pure evil of what I learnt human beings were capable of.

The following excerpt from the camp commandant at his trial and is a graphical example.

- Kaindl: Until mid of 1943, prisoners were killed by shooting or hanging. For the mass exterminations, we used a special room in the infirmary. There was a height gauge and a table with an eye scope. There were also some SS wearing doctor uniforms. There was a hole at the back of the height gauge. While a SS was measuring the height of a prisoner, another one placed his gun in the hole and killed him by shooting in his neck. Behind the height gauge there was another room where we played music in order to cover the noise of the shooting.

5/5 Excellent

"The hotel was the PERFECT location and had all of the amenities we needed. We included breakfast and it was an excellent buffet with also an option to order breakfast too. The only let down is that the weather was very warm when we were in Berlin, the air conditioning was the best as we were up at night overheating! "

5/5 Excellent

"Great deal for comfortable and clean hotel in central location in Berlin. The breakfast was amazing! The immediate area is not nice/interesting but it is very easy, safe and quick to get anywhere you want to be. There is no common area to hang out in the lobby."
