TOUR DESCRIPTION
 

Gdynia Shore Excursion

This tour visits the Memorial and Museum located at the former Stutthof Concentration Camp, the place of death for over 85,000 people, although the actual number killed is assumed to be much greater. The excursion includes a visit to the camp site and its poignant museum.

After meeting your guide you immediately depart for the town of Sztutowo where the Stutthof concentration camp is located. This was the first Nazi camp built outside of Germany and was the last camp liberated by Allied forces. Originally a small prison for Poles and P.O.W.'s, the camp would become the site for some of the worst atrocities of the War.

Between 1939 and 1945, 127,000 prisoners were officially registered in the camp, but those who were immediately singled out for execution were not registered at all, so there is no way of knowing the exact number or people brought to Stutthof.

Finally liberated on May 9, 1945 by the Soviet Army, the camp was shut down and its prisoners were released. People from 26 different nations had been kept there, a testament to the scale of the Nazi war effort.

Today a visit to the camp site and its museum takes about 2 hours. The museum shows a variety of short films and also contains artifacts such as jewelry, art work and clothing which was found after the liberation.

After a sobering visit to this memorial, you return Gdynia, never to forget the past.

Reviewer: Travel Agent Donna R from Cruise Holidays of Palm Springs, Palm Springs, CA  
I just want you to know that we had absolutely the best tours that were booked through you. When we did one through the ship, we really noticed the difference and missed our small van. Everything was handled expertly and after meeting the first one, I never had any worries from then on. You handled the last minute change from Athens to Crete and everyone was thoroughly impressed that you were able to put together something and actually came through. Thanks again, you made me look good !

Thank you for checking in. The tour was guide and driver were very professional and early, so when we got off the ship early to find where to meet them he was already waiting for us. While tour was very moving. They made sure that our time with them was used to the fullest.
