Germany. Bayern state. The Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site. A family (father, mother and child) stands in the maintenance building which is today the site of the exhibition with pictures of the daily life in the camp. 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
