"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.

"We really enjoyed the uniqueness of our room. Nice little kitchen, loft, main bedroom, spacious bathroom, and great patio to sit out on. The complimentary water and beer each day topped it off. Would definitely stay again!"

"Location is very convenient, staff was helpful and the room was clean and comfortable. There are laundry facilities. I would come back, happily. The only very minor annoyance is the minibar, while free, is not stocked past the first day. One can pick up free minibar items at the reception, but that defeats the point of minibars. "
