This is a place everyone should visit to learn about the horrors men and women are capable of and prevent the rise of fascism. It is in a beautiful location which is in total contrast to what took place here. The visitors centre and museum in the old SS HQ is thorough, though a little confusing in parts. Most interpretation is bilingual though the workshops are German only(June 2019). The former commandant's House was interesting.

For the first time we visited one of the women concentration camps in Europe. There are no physical camps left here. But through the exhibition, documentation, old crematory and a mini workshop, we learned more about how SS built and controlled a grand force-working system with endless supply of political enemies, communists and Jews. The camps no doubt is the darkest side of humanity.

You should visit this place if you ever go to Berlin. Only one hour away with the train.

Very open space, but still a good kept memorial.

Many buildings are still in good condition. This camp make you realize the horrors of the Holocaust and how much damage the Germans have done. It reminds me of the concentration camps used in many movies.

Really interesting place to visit. Makes you feel close up to the tragedies that happened here only a few years ago. Would recommend everyone to go both here and to the other concentration camps that were built during World War 2.

Concentration camp made with women in mind, many if them put here with they're born and unborn children. As children play out they're feelings and reality, stories tell of kids playing selection and gas chamber on these grounds. Women in this camp had to work just as hard as the ones in other camps, sometimes even harder. Human experiments where also a fact here. The name "kaninchen" were used for the ones jumping around after having their legs cut of at different lengths. As a contrast to the brutalities and gruesomeness of the camp, there is a beautiful memorial by the water. The statue of a prisoner carrying another faces the "sea of tears", and the Ravensbrück-roses bloom in the memory of all the women who had to put up with this camps terrible regime.

Everybody should visit this Memorial on former KL ground to learn about nazi attrocities and to contemplate how could we avoid, that such cruel history never repeats
