The Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site, 17 kilometres north-west of the city centre, is a key destination for history and Holocaust education visits. Neuschwanstein Castle (110 kilometres south-west) is the most-visited castle in Germany and a significant destination for art history, architecture, and German history curricula.
