Our Guides
Wolf
Prior to moving to Germany, where his father and family are from, Wolf completed a BA in German History in addition to spending a few years thereafter in the "real world". He moved to Berlin in 2003 after spending three years guiding tours in Munich. While leading city tours and Third Reich tours in Berlin as well as tours of Sachsenhausen, he uses his family's personal experiences to better explain life under the Nazis and civilian knowledge of the Holocaust during the Third Reich.
Derek
In 2004, after completing a BA in modern European History in Canada, Derek began leading tours in Munich and at the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site. Since 2006 he has also been guiding general history and Third Reich tours in Berlin. At Sachsenhausen, he is interested in the Soviet Special Camp and the lack of attention it has received over the years. He is fortunate enough to draw some of his knowledge from personal contacts with survivors of the camp’s Soviet period.
Sylvia
Sylvia came to Berlin in 2005 after completing an MA in Jewish Studies and a BA in European History at McGill University in Montreal. Also a tour guide in France, Canada and the US since 1996, Sylvia leads Third Reich and general history tours of Berlin. A guide at Sachsenhausen since Mosaic’s foundation, she takes a special interest in the relationship between the camp and the neighbouring town of Oranienburg from the 1930s to the present day.
Brad
Brad came to Berlin from Chicago in 2007 after finishing a BA in philosophy. A focus on
German Philosophy and an interest in history led him to begin leading walking tours of Berlin, focusing on the
Third Reich and the general history of the city. He is particularly interested in the legal and political rise of
the Nazis, and the efforts of the Nazis to make Sachsenhausen appear as a legitimate prison.
