Gedenkstätte Bernburg, Memorial site in Bernburg, Germany
The memorial site preserves the former gas chamber, dissection room, and crematorium located within a medical facility that operated from 1940 to 1943.
Between 1940 and 1943, the facility served as one of Nazi Germany's six central killing centers, where over 14,000 patients and concentration camp prisoners died.
The memorial site includes exhibitions documenting forced sterilization programs, medical crimes, and the systematic murder of people with disabilities during the Nazi period.
The memorial opens Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM and the first Sunday of each month from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Visitors can examine the preserved gas chamber, which was disguised as a shower room, and learn about individual victims through biographical research projects.
