An uncomfortable reminder of the past, finding your way to the concentration camp is a little tricky. Lying at the edge of tariff zone C, Oranienburg is the terminus of the S-Bahn line S1, and regional trains RE5 and RB12 also pass on their way along the Nordbahn. The nearest station to the camp is Sachsenhausen Nordb., but the only train that stops there is the hourly RB12. If you do get there, to get to the camp, take a right from the station platform and turn right again onto the footpath, following backward alongside the tracks. After about a kilometer you will reach a road called StraÃe der Nationen the crossing has a death march memorial, turn left here and walk for a few hundred meters to the camp.
The other slightly longer way is to walk directly from Oranienburg station. Take the left exit, turn right and follow the scattered brown "Gedenkstätte Sachsenhausen memorial site" signs to the camp. It's about a 2km walk. There are also hourly buses between the Oranienburg station and the camp.
