On our last city tour we focused on places that were significant in WWII.
First, we visited the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site. Please visit this link for more information: Dachau
Then, we visited the university's main building where the students and siblings Sophie and Hans Scholl secretly distributed anti-Nazi flyers between 1942 and 1943. They belonged to the non-violent resistance movement "The White Rose". The members of this group were convicted of high treason and executed on 22 November 1943.
Lastly, we visited the Feldherrnhalle, a loggia built in the 19th century in honor of military successes. It served in 1923 as the site of Hitler's failed attempt to take over the Bavarian State (Beer Hall Putsch).
