13. DACHAU - EUROPE TRIP APRIL 2015

SUNDAY, APRIL 19th

John and I stayed in Garnish for two nights.  We took a train and bus to 

DACHAU

THIS WILL BE A DAY THAT I WILL NEVER FORGET.  I HAVE HEARD

STORIES OF THE HOLOCAUST, BUT TO SEE WHERE SOME OF

THE INHUMANE TREATMENTS, SUFFERINGS AND INJUSTICE TOOK PLACE 

WILL FOREVER BE EMBEDDED IN MY BRAIN AND MY HEART

I WILL NEVER FORGET!

THE FRONT GATE TO DACHAU

The words on the gate said "Work Will Make You Free"

Check out the gate below, it is not the same gate.  Only three months earlier 

the original gate was stolen.  So sad to think someone or

some group could do such a thing

Rail Tracks still remain
