#HolocaustRemembranceDay2025 is Monday, but let's start with a look at Buchenwald.

At first it was for political prisoners, but after Kristallnacht 1938, it was used for 10K+ Jews--plus Jehovah’s Witnesses, Roma and “asocials.”

Who will the "asocials" be now?

Three furnaces for the bodies. The mechanization of genocide.

Monday is #HolocaustRemembranceDay2025.

Use it to learn history so that we don't repeat it.

The system of rails & carts was used to move bodies and put them inside the furnaces.

An interior view of a dimly lit concrete room with rough, deteriorating walls and ceiling. The space is marked with metal rail tracks embedded in the floor, separated by a low barrier for preservation. A single window provides minimal natural light, and a bare bulb hangs from the ceiling.
