I cannot remember which one we visited, but know that it was en route from Munich to Vienna in Austria (and there was a stone quarry inside the camp).

    You can visit Dachau, which is close to Munich. I think it might have been Mauthausen-Gusen, which is in Austria.
    There is a palpable feeling of loss and sadness in those places - not the place to go if you're out for a good time, but for a history buff it's a no brainer.

    @FriedPiet - theres a place called Ramsau which you should definitely look into visiting:



    My dream is to quit my job and open a pub there. Or herd goats - whatever comes first.
