Stadler: Studying history is something that is infinitely important. Atrocities are still being committed, even today, over and over again. Our own history, in Germany, teaches us we have to be careful. I think it\u2019s good that history is not an elective subject, because that way all school pupils have to confront the Nazi period themselves. The Dachau concentration camp memorial is unambiguous proof that these things really happened. If you try to get rid of everything at the memorial, then all those memories die through your silence.<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: Interview, D. Mittler und M.

Noch heute passieren Greueltaten, immer wieder. Unsere eigene Geschichte lehrt uns, aufzupassen. Es ist gut, dass Sch\u00fcler dieses Fach nicht abw\u00e4hlen k\u00f6nnen. So muss sich jeder auch mit der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus besch\u00e4ftigen. Die Gedenkst\u00e4tte ist der eindeutige Beweis daf\u00fcr, dass die Verbrechen wirklich passiert sind.
