Germany Commemorates Dachau Liberation 70th Anniversary

DACHAU, GERMANY - MAY 03: A general view of entrance gate of the Dachau concentration camp during a ceremony to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the liberation at the memorial site on the grounds of the former concentration camp on May 3, 2015 in Dachau, Germany. Dachau was the first Nazi concentration camp and began operation in 1933 to hold political prisoners, though it later expanded to include Jews, common criminals and foreign nationals. It served mainly as a source of slave labour during World War II and included approximately 100 sub-camps spread across southern Germany and Austria. At least 30,000 inmates died before its liberation by U.S. troops in 1945. (Photo by Alexandra Beier/Getty Images)
