On these pages you'll find some general information about dark tourism (if you want to find info about actual places go straight to the dark destinations section, the countries menu on the left, or the index).
As a guideline for gauging the relative values of the individual sites described, two classification systems are applied, separately for the 'dark' and for the 'touristic':
1. for classifying destinations by how 'dark' they are, darkometer ratings between one and ten are given,
2. as a gauge for the touristic merits of a place (independent of how dark), a conventional star rating system (one to five) is applied (wherever that was possible).
