This is a version of a previously released video at the Dachau concentration camp. That version contained a photo of the crematorium at Dachau that was taken from a distance and included images of the dead that had been blurred out to comply with RU-vid's content policy. In spite of that, RU-vid made the decision to place an age restriction on that video anyway, which essentially ensures that its reach will be cut off.
To our shame, we are uploading this sanitized version in hopes that we can reach a broader audience and contribute to the expansion on education on the Holocaust. We feel strongly that you cannot fully understand the horrors of the Holocaust without actually showing the horrors of the Holocaust, but in this particular case, our hands are tied. Our hope is that RU-vid will revisit this policy and reconsider the restrictions that they have placed on this video and on the videos of other history creators. Please consider watching this video, presented ad free, in its entirety and sharing it with others.
Original version here: • Dachau: A Walk Through...
______________________________________________________________________
Before there were places like Auschwitz, Buchenwald and Sobibor, there was Dachau. Located just outside of Munich, this was the first concentration camp of the Third Reich that became the model for all of the others. In April 1945, Dachau was liberated by men of the 42nd & 45th Infantry and 20 Armored Divisions. In this episode, we're walking through to show the history behind this awful place.
Note: Whole at the religious memorials, I inadvertently said “Christian” when I meant to say “Protestant”. No harm intended. Just a miscommunication between my brain and my mouth.

Restricting documentaries on showing what happened doesn't benefit anyone, if anything it is more damaging. Your coverage, as I said on the other video, is highly respectful. This subject needs to be covered and younger generations need to be fully aware of what people can be capable of doing to each other, with that understanding they can then help prevent it happening again. My family was torn apart by the war, it is something that needs to be kept in the minds of all as a stark warning.

This was a rough place to visit for me. My foster uncle was placed here as a child in 1934- 1945. Malnourished and badly abused, he said he was more afraid of death when he was liberated than as a slave. Out of 157 of his family, he and his first cousin were the only survivors. You would think he would be so angry after what happened to him. I never saw him without a smile and i don't think he went an hour without telling a joke. He's said if he makes everyone love him, he will never have to suffer like that again. God Bless Eugene Zuckerman.

I served 4 years in the Army stationed in Germany for the most of it. One summer I took a trip to Dachau because of curiosity. As sobering as it was, the most striking thing to me at the time was that no birds chirped, or sang, as I entered through the compound. It was quiet and still, and a bit un-nerving. It sparked an interest to find out more of the years 1933 to 1946. I hope no one ever forgets or dismisses the horror of those years. It was a very somber tour, and I admit I cried during the presentation of the tour.

I worked at a pool store many years ago, one customer we had was a very sweet older lady who happened to be a survivor. I never disrespected her by asking questions about where and how old she was at the time. One day she came in and a kid that was working there (16-17) saw her arm and asked what the numbers were for. He didnt mean it disrespecful by no means. I was stunned that 1. He didnt know what it was 2. Found out they do not teach that in schools here anymore. She was so sweet, she explained what the numbers meant and where she was at and a few things that had happened to her while ahe was there. This child was in tears after listening to her. We all were. Other customers were too. When did they stop teaching this in schools? AND WHY???

They don’t teach about its because it’s an unpleasant subject to talk about. There’s bound to be a little group of parents that would complain about it. Very loudly, I’m sure. The same ones who pitch a fit about teaching sex ed. I think would be appropriate for 15, 16 or 17 year olds to study and learn about the holocaust. As a society, we need to show respect for the victims and survivors and not pretend like it didn’t happen. That’s what the German population did when it was happening, and afterwards. It’s human nature to avoid unpleasantness, to say the least in this case, especially if it’s happening to someone else.

However, I saw the same depth of emotion while touring one of the (many) Killing Fields and one of the (many) torture prisons of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia last Fall. The saving grace for me was that while I was at the main torture prison, two middle school classes arrived on busses to also tour the museum facility.

@@godfreyzilla8608 It takes courage to admit that you have a feeble mind and it's not going to waste. Using emotions and fantastical fictional stories to capture the mind of the individual. You are a product of that. Yes, it can. Guess what? The "footage" from the camps are from the American military's division for pshycological warfare. The items on the tables you see in many of the videos are there to reinforce the lies and had absolutely nothing to do with the camps. It's the product of psychological operations (psyop) to influence the mind's of an enemy state to your advantage through uncombatitive means. There's many purposes they serve, and three of them are: 1) The Germans loved and admired Hitler. He was their hero in their eyes as he was the person who brought Germany back to prosperity and out of debt slavery pushed onto them as the result of the Treaty. So, to break this the psyop was intended to influence their minds with fantastical tales of what war crimes their Fuhrer "committed." This resulted in Germans throughout Europe to be persecuted, tortured, murdered, and humiliated as they forced them to march to their certain death in the Soviet Union Gulags.. 10-12 million Germans were killed due to ethnic cleansing. Children were not even spared. The children were hung along with the adults. 2) After years of the Allied powers and the media in those countries painting Hitler as a warmonger who is wanting to conquer the world with their supposedly "superior" race to rule the lesser races.. They needed to reinforce that idea and never mention that it was only Hitler that pleaded for peace and pleaded for understanding and reconciliation and for Germany to be judged equally and left alone to attend to their duties and responsibilities. That it was only the Allied powers who demanded/wanted (did a terrible job of masking their desires) a World War. 3) And to cover up their own war crimes and hide the fact that the true enemy was the Soviet Union and the extermination camps were in Soviet Union. To hide the fact the Allied powers aided this country by funding its rearming and supplying military equipment. Even knowing that the Soviet Union invaded and liquidated many countries to the West (they didn’t even bother coming to their aid as the Soviets invaded) To cover up the fact the Allied Air Froce pilots in Poland straffed and bombed civilians, refugees fleeing the Soviet Union as they pushed towards Berlin (because they would be murdered by the NKVD operating behind the front), their bombing and sinking of German ships carrying civilians that are fleeing the war, and the bombing of crucial supply chains meant for the very concentration camps resulting in a severe lack of food and medicine to fight Typhus that killed hundred thousands of people in these camps. Their bombings of German cities and European cities across Europe, the bombing of these very concentration camps (I mean, it is a known fact that they had to *"reconstruct"* the camps to show the world).

Dachau was liberated by my great uncle, who died recently ~3 years ago. He was part of the front line that found Dachau, he has many medals and told me about this event. Some of what he told me: He said it was beyond what he thought human being were capable of. He said there were huge ovens that were still hot with piles of smoldering human remains, they were burned alive, he said there was a very strong smell of death. He told me the human prisoners there were beyond emaciated and they were ordered to not allow them to leave before disease could be established and to not give much food because they couldn’t handle it after being starved so long. Uncle told me damn with those orders and his squad gave every bit of food and water they had, the survivors were scared when they were not allowed to immediately leave but were comforted and began trusting the Americans after they gave them all their food and water. I asked my uncle what happened to the guards there, he said who? I said the guys that guarded it. He said they fought to liberate it and there were no human guards, that they were lower than animals and the prisoners went at them and he and his men refused to stop them, he said you would of needed lethal force to stop the prisoners and he was not about to shoot the prisoners. They flew my great uncle “Pat” to Florida before his death to give a “living testimony” to what had happened there. Uncle Pat was a good man, kind hearted, strong and wholesome, he lived to 97-98 years old I believe.

Similar situation with two of my great uncles, also from former Yugoslavia. Both were sent as forced labourers and returned never the same. I met one of them when I was much younger and it seemed after he returned, wore his sailor suit often but was essentially broken for rest of his life and never really returned to working on boats. To illustrate the complexity of war, those two great uncles that were sent to Dachau had a brother who was earlier sent to an Italian prison (some dust up over a woman with his commanding officer), and so when the Nazis came south and overran the prison, he was press ganged into becoming a translator for a couple of months. Then press ganged into joining the equally shameful Ustaše (Nazi collaborators), and then finally short period later jumped to join the partisans for last couple years of WWII. He served some time in jail after the war as the partisans weren’t sure on his story, and I remain curious to find out more as well about that awful period.

I can count on one hand the number of times that the sun shone on that camp. It was as if the sun itself knew that horrible things had happened here and refused to shine on such cursed ground.

Death, starvation, and disease conditions at Dachau were so terrible that General Patton was contacted and urgently asked to come and see it himself. He did, and was outraged. When charges were brought against U.S. soldiers who had helped kill many Dachau guards, including their lending guns for prisoners to use, they were all overruled and dismissed outright. By General George Patton himself.

I wish so much that I had recorded the stories my father-in-law told me about life as a Polish slave laborer in a Nazi ball bearing factory. The oddest thing I learned about it, though, is we figured out that my father, a B-17 tailgunner, flew over and his plane dropped bombs on or near that same ball bearing factory a number of times! I'm thankful they both survived the war because they became very close friends.

I saw names and dates of birth and death and asked why 1. Everyone on Dad’s side died in the same year, and 2. Why I didn’t know anyone on Dads side except for my Aunt. She tried to explain why in a way that wouldn’t scare a 6 year old (it scared me anyway). But that was how I learned about Dachau. I remember asking her why they hated us so much. She said “that’s what happens when you believe the things people tell you about someone without getting to know them yourself.”

My parents immigrated from Germany, and I was mostly raised in the states. We spent a lot of time visiting family in Germany. When I was 14, my mom decided I was old enough to see a concentration camp for myself. I visited Dachau. I don't really know how to describe the feeling. It was like an overshadow of darkness. As I walked through, I saw where people were held, murdered, and cremated. In my head, I kept picturing all the people who suffered there. It was an insane experience to walk the same ground all the Nazi's prisoners had. One thing I will absolutely NEVER forget is going into the crematorium. The smell of burnt flesh and death still lingers very very heavily. It was like walking into a thick almost suffocating fog when the smell hit. Visiting a concentration camp is a surreal experience and not for the faint of heart. It was an overwhelming feeling of darkness, sadness, and horror. All I could picture were the people who suffered and lost their lives there. Any area or room I walked into, I pictured the people who were there years and years before. This visit changed me. It's just heavy and gives you so much to think about. Especially when you see more evil happening in the world today.

I'm well into my 7th decade on this here rock, and struggle to find content of such relativity - like the kind this channel offers up on a regular basis - and like that found in the Dachau series. It's called humanity, which is #1 of all the things left in life that truly matter. That's not an opinion, but absolute fact. To censor any portion of the trespasses committed in the history of humanity only encourages repetition of the same. On the contrary, it has to be available to everyone - all of it - with nothing censored, and nothing hidden in the dark shadows.

During most of our trip the sun was out and it was beautiful, the day we went to Dachau the sky was gray, it had snowed and it was cold and we saw soldiers training along the road, on our way to the camp. I remember the gate....and the barb wire and electric fences....it was like walking back through time going through the gates. We went through the museum, at that time they had detailed menus showing what the prisoners were supposed to have been being fed for meals and what they were actually fed.... They showed pictures of the prisoners that were starving.... They had examples of household products that had been made from the prisoners skin, including lamp shades. By the time we watch the video we were so traumatized and upset, we couldn't handle anything more so we left. Videos like this need to be shown in our schools.... People need to realize (and remember) what happened in World war II.... NEVER FORGET!

You are absolutely right. As part of educating their children at age 12+ they should take their kids to the US Holocaust Museum in Washington DC. Wear comfortable shoes because there are four floors of exhibits dense with reading, photos and artifacts -- thousands of shoes, eyeglasses, suitcases, human hair. One small area is about a small Jewish village that was completely exterminated; photos of the inhabitants grace the walls and you get an idea of the life that existed in that village that was snuffed out. You can walk through a cattle car like those used to transport people to the camps; so, so much to see. There is an excellent museum shop and also a hall of remembrance. Parents spend a fortune taking their kids to Disneyworld. But THIS is part of their education and development of their idealism, sense of moral justice and compassion. LITTLE is more important for you to give your kids. Some people with the financial means take their kids to concentration camps to see the real thing. It is something they will never forget. Videos like this can take the place of expensive flights and visits. Watch such documentaries with your kids to answer their questions and show them how to obtain additional information online. And educate YOURSELF if you are uninformed about the Holocaust. Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it. OK, so why is this so darned important? Well, when an American president urges his minions to break into the Capitol, the American seat of government, to terrorize lawmakers and stop the ratification of a free and fair election, we think back to when Hitler burned the Reichstag, the seat of German government. When a president imitates the jerky movements of a physically challenged person, it brings to mind how Hitler rounded up the physically and mentally challenged in Germany and exterminated them by lethal injection because they were worthless humans and non-Aryan to boot. When a president cozies up to dictators we are reminded of how Hitler cozied up to Mussolini. The similarities are striking but if you do not know your history you cannot draw the parallels or know what the results of such actions will be. Just think on it. Do your own reading and research (NOT on conspiracy theory sites which pander to ignorant people) and see if I am right or wrong. Make up your own mind about whether the Holocaust actually occurred. Going to a concentration camp will convince you. Going into the shower rooms where people were gassed will make you physically and psychologically ill. You will feel the presence of souls all around you. I am not kidding!

What I saw in those pictures is unspeakable, to this day, even here. I wish I'd never seen them... the images have never left my memory. He then said, "You think those pictures are bad, being there was far worse. When I opened up one of the barracks doors the odor that came out was so thick and terrible, I dropped my camera and threw up on the spot! I've smelled death on the battlefields, seen carnage and gore, but none of my battle experience prepared me for what I experienced at Dachau..."

Talking about his experiences of horror with a therapist might have enabled him to air his sorrow and horror and lay it somewhat to rest. We are doing a bible study at church about Moral Injury, and war always injures its soldiers morally. Without a way to express what they went through, their memories remain vivid and the only thing to help them to forget are drugs, alcohol and ultimately suicide. This is so sad. In the WW2 era, coming home was supposed to heal them all, but it didn't. Those who were not in direct fighting probably had an easier time readjusting to civilian life, but those who were in the infantry, fighting hand to hand and suffering concussive brain injuries returned broken. My Dad wrote in a letter home that when he got back home he wanted a car and for his Dad to look out for one for him. He also didn't want to get a job right away, but to rest and travel around for a bit. He got his car but to my knowledge he did not travel; he got a job and entered the work force. He got married to our Mom in 1946 and they had my older brother in 1948. So Dad got back into the swing pretty easily but it wasn't easy at ALL for guys in the front lines.

The thought of how many people; real human beings with personalities and smiles and bodies were killed there will always hurt me. The whole place felt so cold and soulless. I just hope that those souls have left that dreadful place and returned to their rightful homes. Never forget, Never again.

Or the 20+ million Christian Russians who were killed by the Jewish Bolshevik regime once they brutally took over Russia.... Listen to Yuri Bezemenov (might have botched the last name) and listen to what he says about the Soviet Union. You will soon realize that Hitler fought to defend Europe from the plague known as Communism/Marxism/Bolshevism (all the same) while the Allied powers aided this plague in their conquest to destroy Germany and Hitler.

At least if they were being truthful, they could not deny the reality they were struck with when they had their "tours."

Religion was never banned by Nazis. In fact they had freedom of religion as one of their election promises km 25 point programme. They just built their own "church" and warped the teachings of Jesus to dehumanise those they didn't like. Be far more wary of those who claim freedom of religion whilst warping the teachings of prophets. Furthermore it is also not true that Germans had their guns confiscated.

I was stationed in Germany from 2005-2006 and served as a military policeman. I also served in the Marine Corps before I served in the Army. I stopped into Dachau with my family on the way back from Garmisch. What amazed me most about the camp you shouldn’t leave out is how well camouflaged the camp was because they try to hide the camps. I almost walked right past the camp because it just looked like a thicket of trees surrounding it. When I was there in 2005, the path leading up to it had a bus stop in front of the trail that leads to the camp. They also tried to keep us from going to the gas chambers by saying it was “closed for repairs”! Your video brought back some memories of my family’s visit. I was stationed in Giessen and we actually stayed in barracks similar to the ones at Dachau’s. We stayed in old Luftwaffe barracks. I might add too that Germany is made to keep these camps up to make them keep in mind what happened in the past, so it won’t be repeated. You do know Zyklon B is what the Nazis used to kill people right? It wasn’t a disinfectant. They did actually kill prisoners in those gas chambers and anybody that tells you different is lying. The German government hates admitting to it. Those first two rooms in the gas chambers were for disrobing. The next room were the “showers” where they used the zyklon b. The next rooms were for stacking bodies and burning them in ovens. You really need to do more research instead of just what they are telling you at the camp. Do you think they just built gas chambers and build fake showers to look at? Prisoners went down there and didn’t come back!!! You should redo this video! They will never admit to it! They hate that they have to keep the camps up! Read up on Dr. Blaha’s testimony of what he saw at the camp. Read this in it’s entirety furtherglory.wordpress.com/tag/dr-franz-blaha/ .

Thank you for this awesome coverage. My father was in the 42nd Inf Div, 242 Reg in WWII. He was among the first into Dachau, and witnessed the horrors firsthand. Although he was Infantry, he was serving as the Regt Intel Officer at the time, mostly because he had a camera, and was an avid photographer. The photos you may see of the stacked bodies at Dachau (appearing like cordwood, in neat pile) were taken 2-3 days after the arrival of the US Army. My father documented (photographically) what it was like before the "clean up". After the liberation Time and Life Magazines were not allowed into the camp to take their photos that changed the world for 2-3 days. I provided my father's photos (and the negatives) to the Holocaust Museum in Wash DC, with a signed agreement that they will not be reprinted nor displayed until the year 2100, due to the atrocities they depict. The Nazis had fled the Allied advance, leaving the wire fences electrified, thus preventing escape, but with no food coming into the camp. Since those inside the wire could hear the approaching gunfire, they knew they only had to hang on for a few more days. Nonetheless, many died due to lack of nutrition since they were barely subsisting, living day-to-day on the meager rations the Nazi camp guards provided. Those remaining alive resorted to consuming the remains of those who died; their only means of living for another day, resulting in their being rescued by the Allies. My father's photos depict this grim reality, and that is why, by signed agreement, they will not be revealed until 2100, at which time, I expect that revisionist history may very well have succeeded in wiping away these horrors, and when the reality will need to be revealed once again.

I will not call it a camp, as the word "camp" to me is of wonderful childhood memories. This was a place of torture, people were not treated as humans beings by their fellow human beings. They were treated as trash, that one would discard just to get rid of. I hope that the light that needs to shine on the dark part of history does not dim. History like this should never, ever be repeated.

You should do the word and public a favor and show them somehow so people can see the nature of evil with power at their expense. Believe me.. things like this will happen again. Look in history.

I’m 63 and by the year 2100 I’ll be gone and not be able to see your pictures. But that is part of history and people need to be aware of what really happened in those concentration camps. I know we will never know the whole store because a lot of evidence was burnt to try and hide what they did to the prisoners.

The people being forced to stand barefoot naked in the snow and when the guide told us how if they moved, they would be shot.

I feel the same way about that place as you. In 1980-1983, my wife and I were stationed nearby in Augsburg, Germany. After our first visit to this place, we made it a point to bring all of our family visitors from the states to Dachau. After a few visits to the museum, we had to send our visitors in without us, it was way too gut-wrenching to experience this inhumanity to man over and over. It is impossible to imagine the suffering that went on here. Thank you for this public service; I know the cost paid by you in making this video.

Nothing was "informative, and honest" about this. There was not 1 single crematorium in any camp ever found. Not 1. And even those who spread these lies who originally said 21 camps had them, they had to retract those statements down to 1... Auschwitz. Which is why they added a chimney to that camp AFTER the war. Funny bc while the camp was active there was no chimney. David Coles documentary from 1992 explains all of this. It's no wonder Mr Cole went into hiding for his groundbreaking work despite David himself being of the same 'persecuted faith too. Instead of this nonsense maybe the guy who makes this video should travel to the middle east and let people see the horror that takes place in 🇮🇱 but News organizations don't cover it, and Yisrael can get away with literal 🔪 and 🔫

Took my family there a few years back. It's surreal. Many extremely disturbing realizations, but the two that I can remember most vividly was how hauntingly quiet and beautiful the Krematorium area was (not sure if I spelled that right) & the fact that, despite Germans claiming they were unaware of what was happening there, you could throw a stone from the middle of the camp and hit the outer edge of the town. There's no way they didn't know.

I went to Dachau in June 1978 with my parents and sister. The images from the museum will stay with me for my entire life. At the time there were books with every single person that worked in Dachau named. Their town and city of origin. The execution wall was horrific. The crematoria was awful to see (i was 15 years old when i visited ).My dad really didn't want to go to Dachau but I was adamant about seeing it. Unfortunately I had no idea at the time that my dad's 2 aunts died in Dachau until we returned home. The ironwork sculpture of the mangled bodies is also something that i will never forget.

Going to Auschwitz was even more intense. Knowing that the ashes of millions are spread over the very ground you walk on there is a humbling event. There wasn't enough crematoria to burn all those bodies, so the Nazi sadists constructed burn piers and kept the fires going day and night, until the last of the late comers, the almost 500,000 Hungarian Jews, were murdered and disposed of. Dachau though was where it all started, and where the SS training school was. Just the most depraved ideology led to this. And still, Germans had faith in Hitler to the bitter end, even after it became known wtf was going on with the Jews. I've studied the war for 5 decades, traveled Europe, interviewed survivors in Israel, USA, and I'm still stunned when I read about the Holocaust.

The same type of genocide was perpetrated there as was done in the Nazi Concentration Camps. The victims were identified differently, but the resultant horrors were almost exactly the same. While I was there, 2 busloads of Middle School students were brought on a "field trip " with their teachers so they too would get 1st hand knowledge. Many were crying.

I visited Dachau on a school trip when I was 16 years old. To this day, nothing from that 14 day trip was as memorable or important as walking through those gates, and seeing “Arbeit Macht Frei”. Being the naive teenager that I was, I didn’t realize then just how privileged I was to be able to also walk out of those gates that day. I am forever grateful that I was able to experience visiting. The 34 year old I am today, wishes the 16 year old knew just how important it was, and privileged that I was. It definitely changed me in some ways, that I will always remember that we have only one life, and to never take anything for granted. Thank you for such a beautiful and respectful documentary.

@Tracy O’Malley: Cambodia, the “killing fields”, Bosnia/Herzegovina war in the 90s, which had many actions for genocide of Muslims, also known as “ethnic cleansing”. All the bush wars in Africa during which members of one tribe kills another unprovoked and including murdering children as they sat at their school desks, along with teachers and other staff. Don’t kid yourself, it is still going on and has always been. There have always been people willing to commit atrocities against less powerful groups who they demonize.

I visited Dachau when I was in Germany (USArmy, Stuttgart) in the late 70's. It was very oppressive. Back then, you could go into the shower (gas) rooms, and you could step inside the oven shed, and there were still skulls in the bottom of one. It was really crazy, but I could smell the burning flesh inside the shed. The minute I stepped outside of it, I could not smell it. It was like it permeated every brick and piece if wood and iron inside. I will never forget it. In the barracks, they were built to house 400 people. At the end, 1600 were made to sleep in there. The beds started out kind if roomy, but just got narrower and narrower as time passed. There were horrendous experiments carried out on people and the main building had pictures and stories. It was a very humbling experience to see all that and hard to imagine people living thru it.
