An aerial view of Dachau. Dachau was the first nazi concentration camp, opening on 22 March 1933 (just 7 weeks after Hitler came to power). Although it was a forced labour camp and there were no gas chambers there, brutality and violent punishments were the norm. There were 32000 documented deaths there and many thousands more undocumented. The main camp (Dachau had 100 sub-camps) was liberated by the US Army on 29th April 1945.
