Hello,
If you're in Dachau, then this is simply a must-see, at least for me.

It's not pleasant, but it's part of our history, and it interests me.

Even if this is perhaps the darkest chapter in it. I've already visited several such places and therefore also know this oppressive feeling, which is simply terrible here in the area of …

The last day of the “Germany Ticket” had to be used again. Because bad weather was forecast, a museum was also supposed to be there.
The rain didn't come, so Dachau was free to explore.

So I was already in the horrible concentration camp main camp Auschwitz, in the huge death factory Auschwitz-Birkenau, in concentration camp Stutthof and in Weimar-Buchenwald. The Dachau concentration camp, near which I grew up, was …

On our travels it is also very important that we confront the past and do not simply suppress terrible things.

For the first time I went to Dachau, the first concentration camp of the Nazis (opened in 1933). It served as a model for all later camps and was a place of unimaginable suffering and death. Over 200,000 people were …

What can one say about this place? For me, it was quite overwhelming in some places. I didn't take photos of everything. Everyone perceives a place like this differently.

A lot of information, many names, a lot of suffering. Still, it's a worthwhile experience. The more I explored this area, the quieter I became...
