Mauthausen Memorial, Holocaust memorial site in Mauthausen, Austria.

The Mauthausen Memorial encompasses the preserved grounds, buildings, and quarry of a former Nazi concentration camp established during World War II.

From 1938 to 1945, over 190,000 prisoners passed through Mauthausen concentration camp, with more than 90,000 individuals perishing due to forced labor and executions.

The memorial museum presents photographs, documents, and personal belongings of prisoners, illustrating the systematic persecution of various groups during the Nazi regime.

Guided tours in multiple languages lead visitors through the camp grounds, prisoner barracks, crematorium, and quarry, requiring advance reservations for groups.

The notorious granite quarry contains 186 steep steps where prisoners carried heavy stones, marking one of the most brutal forced labor locations in the camp system.
