RE: German Decay: A Prison for the Youth

With those traces, I would say the physical appearance of the place is beautiful. But the fact that it was once a concentration camp made it hostile and a traumatic place that would haunt people to recall the past. I have read s book about concentration camp on Viktor Frankls A Man Search for Meaning and there I learned a lot about what really happened that time beyond the suffering. It gives me goosebumps just by seeing the photos. It must be a sad place.

Sort:  

These are traces of two cruel dictatorships, one fascist and one communist, for which people were merely material to be bent, broken, and destroyed until they were willing to serve their own purposes without protest. That the treasury of this dark time is now being defeated by nature is a beautiful detail.
