Mala Pevnost (Small Fortress)
Terezin consisted of the Big Fortress and the Small Fortress. The Big Fortress was surrounded by ramparts and contained barracks. However, Terezin had not been used as a fortress since 1888; Terezin had become a garrison town that remained virtually the same, almost entirely separated from the rest of the countryside. The Small Fortress was used as a prison for dangerous criminals. Terezin changed dramatically when the Nazis renamed it Theresienstadt and sent the first Jewish transports there in November 1941. The Nazis sent approximately 1300 Jewish men on two transports to Theresienstadt. These workers made up the Aufbaukommando, later known in the camp as AK1 and AK2. These men were sent to transform the garrison town into a camp for Jews. The largest and most serious problem these workgroups faced was metamorphosing a town that in 1940 held approximately 7,000 residents into a concentration camp which needed to hold about 35,000 to 60,000 people.

Nice trip to Terezin
Rafael197009, 16-08-2022
The trip was well organised. The guide arrived in time to the meeting point and handed us some water bottles and provided some basic explanations. We then headed for Terezin in a mini-van. The guide provided an ample introduction to the history behind Terezin. The journey took around 50 min, but they elapsed in a sight. We visited the cemeteries and the crematory in Big Terezin and then had a tour through the main streets. We then headed for Small Terezin, where the guide provided detailed explanations. The visit finished with a film about the propaganda that nazies made about Terezin. The guide had very good command of Spanish, Italian, and also English. She was very friendly and well informed. The was able to create a nice atmosphere in my group. The net time of the visit was roughly three hours. Very good experience. I definitely recommend it.
Emotional and Moving Experience

The guided tour of the prison by the local guide was the highlight for us- very informative. We wish that we would have heard more about the town as we were driving through it. Our guide was sick but did not wear a mask or keep her distance.

The tour guide did a terrific job of explaining the story of those that ended up at Terezin. While the subject was sad the tour was informative and educational for my family.
