Details of "Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial - Germany"Date Submitted:
08/22/2007
Description:
Dachau, Germany
Soon after the Nazis took power in 1933, Dachau Concentration Camp was built to handle the overflow from the jails. It evolved into a slave labor camp for Nazi industries. The entrance to Dachau had the Nazi slogan "Arbeit mach frei," or "Work will make you free." Although it was never an extermination camp like those set up in Poland, tens of thousands died in Dachau. Executions were more often for disciplinary measures. The camp had largely fallen into disrepair and was eventually turned into a memorial. There now stands several memorials honoring the thousands of people who suffered there during the Nazi regime.
