View along the wall of a reconstructed Barrack at the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site. The memorial site has just re-constructed two of the 34 Barracks - all the others had been torn down right after the war due to health reasons. The memorial site has left the foundations of the Barracks, however, giving the visitors an impression of the size of the camp.

Another photo of a Dachau Barrack, this time with visitors standing in front of an information poster. It is good to see that (at least some) young people actually do care about our not-so-distant history.

Another photo of a Dachau Barrack. In the front you can see the foundations of the Barracks that have not been re-constructed.

This is the area were Barrack 16 was standing. In total, there were 34 Barracks at the Dachau Camp. Of the 34 Barracks, just two have been restored - one is opened to the public today.

This is the area were Barrack 19 was standing. A plain stone plate indicates the number of the Barrack.

Another view across the non-reconstructed Barracks of Dachau.

And a final view towards the reconstructed Barracks (in the back). To the right, you see the alley of cottonwoods again.

This is a detail of the barbed wire fence surrounding the Dachau Camp. The camp was secured by several means, and escape was impossible.
