Opis

Dachau was one of the first permanent concentration camps and is still synonymous for the inhuman National Socialist machinery of oppression. Shortly after liberation there were plans to contain the concentration camp site in a Christian-Jewish framework. Between 1960 and 1967, in the context of the establishment of the Concentration Camp Memorial Site, ?places of meditation? were created, including the Catholic Mortal Agony of Christ Chapel, the Jewish Memorial and the internationally famous Protestant Church of Reconciliation. These were joined by the Carmelite Convent of the Precious Blood and the Russian Orthodox chapel. This is the official guide book sold at the site of the camp.
