We briefly toured the Dachau concentration camp memorial. These are the original gates and the now the entrance to the memorial. The gate's inscription reads, "ARBEIT MACHT FREI" (Work makes you free).

The crematorium. It was the very first Nazi concentration camp built in March 1933. It was a work camp and " 'processed' more than 200,000 prisoners, and 31,531 were reported killed here."
This monument outside the main exhibition hall reads in 5 languages, 'Never Again'.
The foundations of where the buildings once stood.
