From the preserved grounds of Stutthof to the award-winning Museum of the Second World War in Gdańsk, this private tour offers a broader and more complete perspective on wartime history in northern Poland.
The tour begins with a visit to Stutthof Memorial — the first Nazi concentration camp established outside pre-war Germany. Located near the Baltic coast, Stutthof became a place of imprisonment, forced labor and mass extermination for thousands of victims from across occupied Europe. During your visit, you will explore the preserved camp grounds, historical barracks and museum exhibition presenting the tragic history of the site.
After Stutthof, the journey continues to the Museum of the Second World War in Gdańsk — one of the most impressive modern historical museums in Europe. Designed by the acclaimed architectural studio “Kwadrat”, the dramatic leaning structure became a new architectural symbol of Gdańsk, often compared to the world’s leading contemporary museum projects.
The museum’s vast multimedia exhibition presents World War II not only through military events and political decisions, but also through the everyday experiences of civilians living under occupation, terror and destruction.
The permanent exhibition combines authentic artifacts, immersive installations, photographs, reconstructed interiors and personal testimonies to create a deeply emotional and unforgettable experience. Rather than focusing only on battlefields, the museum explores the human dimension of war — fear, survival, resistance and loss.
Together, Stutthof Memorial and the Museum of the Second World War offer a broader understanding of Nazi occupation and the devastating consequences of war in Poland and across Europe.
