In the year 2005 my High-School choose the best ten students, who master the German language and reward them with a language course in Munich. I had the luck to be part of them. During this time we got the chance to visit Dachau. I read and heard a lot about Dachau, but really standing on this ground of evil exceed all my expectations. It was a day full of emotions, teariness about those who had to die, felling sorry for those who survived all the cruelness, and a huge anger of t...

I took a trip from Munich out to Dachau (about a 25 minute train ride) to see the concentration camp. I saw the crematorium last and wrote in my journal afterwards:"Friday the 13th - what a fitting day to tour a concentration camp. I'm sitting outside the main crematorium (yes, there were 2). Seeing a concentration camp in person is sad, surreal, perplexing, unbelievable (that people can do such things to one another), etc. There is an ample amount of evidence that pain, suffering and tort...

Home base for this Europian Excursion is Heidelberg, Germany. Not a bad home base if you ask me. Just look at the pics below. This will be followed by several reviews of the places I visit on this one month trip.

This Camp is located a few miles northwest of Munich Germany. This was considered the main blue print for all other concentration camps that arose during WWII. Grousome conditions were lived by many jews that passed the area. This was a part of history worth looking over, and instantly add to hatred against racist people. It was worth the drive to the area.

In February of 2004, I journeyed to Frankfurt, the Rhein Valley, Geneva, Vienna, and Münich for the purpose of closing a Swiss bank account. Vienna was romantic, Münich was charming, and the overnight train ride through the Alps offered a breathtaking feast for the eyes.

I decided to keep using Munich as my base of operations in the area and took a quick train to Dachau in the morning. Dachau was the first of many concentration camps in Europe during the Nazi regime. While it is fortunate that not as many people died here as some of the death camps, it is still a horiffic place and will be a constant memorial for years to come.
It was a short walk from where the train dropped me off to where the concentration camp was. As you enter the site...

A work in progress...For spring break 2007, I ventured to the ever popular "Munich, Prague, Vienna and Budapest tour of Central Europe." Naturally the trip included a trip to Dachau and Neuschwanstein Castle as well as other points of interest along this popular track. Slightly off the beaten path was a surprise trip to Passau, Germany, home of the world's largest pipe organ. It was quite amazing to hear it play on Easter Sunday!

My trip to germany was not all fun but this side trip was memorable and I think nessasary.
There are several pictures that have a blue tint not done on purpose but came out that way. This trip brings out so many emotions it's a must see for everyone. just remember that this happened a long time ago and people today should not have to answer for the past.
remember the qoute "those who do not know history are destine to repeate it"
once again in europe while walking t...

We just finished our tour of the Dachau Concentration Camp, which was the original concentration camp or "parent" camp. It was the training ground for the SS, for the SS doctors, for torture, execution, humiliation, and brutality. Upon entereing the gates, individuals who had been successful politicians, businessmen, artists, musicians, authors, professors, loving mothers, fathers, and priceless children found themselves condemned to a life never known to man... one of intense humiliation, fe...

We left Hohenschwangau and headed back towards Munich so we could visit Dachau. When we arrived at Dachau we had only 1 hour ‘til closing which I knew meant we would really be hoofing it. But we did manage to see much of the museum, including the bunker which I hadn’t seen last January. It was really all rather gruesome. Perhaps surreal is a better word. The bunker had cell after cell on display, some were “standing only” cells where people had to stand i...

Today we went out to Dachau to see the first concentraion camp of WWII. It was a very sobering experience. The whole site is intact and acts as a memorial now. We walked through the processing and torture rooms, the bunk rooms and even the crematorium.
After that we went into the city of Dachau which is actually a very charming little town. We picked a random restraunt for lunch and took a chance by ordering Currywurst. It turned out to be exaclty like it sounds...

Travelling through Germany I visited Dachau Museum, created from what was left after the destruction of this Nazi work camp. This was the first of the German concentration camps and was opened March 22, 1933. The day was freezing and snow hung ready to fall. I wandered easily around the place, unlike those who inhabited the place, reading the details of the horrors that should never be forgotten. Records show that the camp processed 206 000 prisoners between 1933 and 1...
