Student Group Trip: Mauthausen and Steyr
Experience history up close – your journey to Mauthausen and Steyr
You have the chance to bring history to life! On this two-day trip, you will learn what happened in the region’s past and what we can learn from it today. First, we take a guided tour through the Mauthausen Concentration Camp Memorial, where you will gain insight into a dark chapter of history and understand why remembrance is so important. In the evening, you will explore Steyr in a very special way – on an exciting Night Watchman Tour through the old town, full of myths and stories. The next morning, you will go deep underground into the “Tunnel of Remembrance”, where you will learn about the role Steyr played during the Second World War. Two days full of history and new perspectives – are you ready? Note: The visit is recommended for students aged 14 and above (8th grade).
