Where to book tickets to Auschwitz?

As with any attraction in Poland, whether it’s the Auschwitz Museum, the Wieliczka Salt Mine, or thermal baths near Zakopane, you should use the official website for ticket reservations.

The official website of the Auschwitz Museum is located at https://visit.auschwitz.org/. On the official website, you have the option to purchase tickets for a guided museum tour, which lasts about 3.5 hours, or to reserve completely free entry passes, which are always available in the afternoon hours.

If you want to ensure that your visit is organized, especially to secure the limited number of free entry passes, you should book your visit on the official website well in advance.

Tickets can also be purchased at the museum ticket office, but the number of tickets available each day is limited, and for various reasons, you need to be there early in the morning before the ticket office opens.

On the official museum website, it is clearly stated that “visit.auschwitz.org is the only official website with entry cards to visit the Auschwitz Museum“. Visiting Auschwitz is very easy to organize on your own for just a few dozen złoty. There is no need to book very expensive tours through various online portals. Everything can be easily and efficiently arranged independently. Here you can read how to get from Krakow to the Auschwitz Museum.

In the winter season, for example in December, the visit takes place in fairly low temperatures, while in summer it can be very hot.

It’s worth checking the ticket prices for the Auschwitz tour.
