To Dachau
Just a little over two weeks ago, my classmates and I set out for the former concentration camp Dachau just outside the city of Munich. The camp has been preserved and turned into a memorial—wooden bunks still stand inside the old barracks and simple, looming monuments to the dead spot the gravel yard. The museum is appropriately kept to the first barracks, and the grounds are quiet save for the occasional guide’s voice or rustling of feet.
Over spring break, my history seminar flew to Germany and traveled around the country to Frankfurt, Munich and Berlin touring institutes, universities and archives renowned for their involvement in scientific research during the early 20th century.
