It is definitely something to visit, the only location like that in France ! 2/3h00 of visit with a quick film and then discovering the site whe you can easily imagine how they lived and died there. Do no miss the gas chamber, 10/15mn walk from the mai n site but mainly opened in the afternoons. If you come with teenagers, even better as we should all never forget.

Sobering experience but museum dealt well with a sensitive subject

Visiting this camp was a very sobering experience but I felt that the museum was very well set out and dealt with a very sensitive subject very well. Many of the captions were in English and the audio guide was very good. Car park was good and there were good toilets and some vending machines if you wanted a coffee.

This surpassed our expectations. Mickaël our guide picked us up at our B and B. He was informed, sensitive and patient, giving us all the time we needed to read and absorb everything. He also provided a welcomed lunch. This is a must tour for all. We would like to take another tour with Mickaël. Couple from Canada

Visit to struthof camp is very different than most other tours. It was real, dark, history, striking, also kind of hidden place, few tourists, you feel a lot there. Mickael is very nice, he set up a picnic lunch at in the forest in the middle of Mont Sainte-Odile, feel like locals. Hiking in forest is nice too, picking mushrooms, see the wall, everything is very special, definitely recommend go with this tour.

We were able to visit the camp and the museum. The place is really steeped in the horrors that happened there. Very interesting visit. The buildings and the explanations of the guide allowed us to imagine what the prisoners had to endure: it was a horror that unfortunately existed. To do to really understand what their life was like at that time!!!
