Germany. Bayern state. The Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site. Two tourists ( a woman with a backpack and a jewish man with a black cap on his head) stand in the maintenance building which is today the site of the exhibition with memorials to the dead people. On march 22, 1933, the first concentration camp was opened in Dachau by the Nazis. It became a model for all later concentration camps established under the control of the SS men and the Third Reich. © 2007 Didier Ruef
