CONCENTRATION CAMP MEMORIAL SITES
Research and Resources

BERGEN-BELSEN
 They are currently redesigning their memorial and their document center is under construction. The opening ceremony should be in September or October 2007.

You can also contact them to confirm that someone was an inmate there and learn the date of their arrival and from where they came.


DACHAU
If you plan a visit, a twenty-minute ride on the S-Bahn from Munich's Central Station and a short bus ride from the Dachau train station will bring you to the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site.

 

The Dachau Concentration Camp memorial site opened in 1965, along with an archive and a library. Both the archive and library are open to the public, though a prior appointment must be made.

There is an opportunity to make inquiries to the Archives at the Dachau site with regard to those who were imprisoned there. If you would like them to see if they have any such information, please contact them at the address listed in the directory above, supplying them with the name of the person you are inquiring about and, if known, the date and place of their birth. The library at the memorial site has a computerized register that contains data on almost ninety percent of the more than 200,000 persons who were imprisoned in the Dachau camps. The library itself has many thousands of volumes of material relating to the camp, the Holocaust, etc.

The Archive contains written documents, over five-thousand photographs, posters, plans, original objects, phonograms and over eight-hundred films. There are eyewitness accounts of survivors, documents relating to the founding and administration of the camps, as well as documents that relate the the post-war trials and holdings of the international prisoner committee that was founded after liberation. There is also material on the history of the camp post-1945 and on the history of the Memorial Site itself.

 

There are may other sources of material, such as newspaper articles and journal essays that have to do with the camps, the Holocaust, the resistance, exile, Nazi post-war trials, and more.

The website URL of the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site is www.kz-gedenkstaette-dachau.de.
