Visit the Majdanek Memorial

Majdanek Tour

What was Majdanek?

Majdanek was one of the largest Nazi concentration camps built during World War II in occupied Poland. Located on the outskirts of the city of Lublin, the camp was established by Nazi Germany in 1941 and operated until 1944.

Unlike many other camps that were destroyed by the retreating German forces, much of Majdanek remained preserved. Today the site serves as one of the most important World War II memorials in Poland, allowing visitors to see original barracks, watchtowers and camp infrastructure.

Walking through the grounds of Majdanek offers a powerful opportunity to understand the scale of the tragedy that took place here and to remember the victims of the Holocaust.
