Dachau Death Camp -- The Scariest Place on Earth



Munich is a charming city with a small town flair.  But in the  early 1930's, it was the birthplace of totalitarianism and terror.  There was so little I knew about how a short and previously-defeated dictator from Austria could gain power in such a sophisticated and intelligent country like Germany.


And there is little the country can be proud of.  In Munich the memorials are small and inconspicuous.  Some are hidden behind trees away from the public eye; many are in view but without honor and explanation.


Third Reich Tour


That is why if you are interested in National Socialist history, you may want to consider taking the Third Reich tour.


After visiting elegant and historic Munich, I had the tremendous honor to pay homage at one of the most notorious and infamous concentration camps in Germany -- Dachau.
