Germany - Thuringia

Buchenwald

A Karen Brown Recommendation

Just 11 kilometers northwest of Weimar lies Buchenwald. Drive through the woodlands to the buildings at the end of the road, where you find a bookshop and an auditorium where a film is shown. Narrated in German, this jerky, old-fashioned movie is somehow more poignant than if it were a slick, commercial production (don’t worry—although it is in German, you can’t miss the story line). The images generated by this concentration camp are horrific, but a part of history that should never be forgotten. The camp installations are gone and a monument pays tribute to the 65,000 victims who died here. (8:45 am–4:45 pm, closed Mondays.)
