VJF/ESC 6.3 Never forget: Buchenwald
Vereinigung junger Freiwilliger e.V.
Berlin, Германия
Описание
The volunteers will work at the memorial site of the former concentration camp of Buchenwald. It is located upon a hill around 10 km from Weimar, the city where Goethe and Schiller worked and lived, but also where the Nazi movement had already in the 1920’s a lot of supporters. Today the site of the Memorial is at the same time a cemetery, an evidence for the crimes which were committed in Buchenwald, a place of grief and commemoration for the victims and a place of historical and political education and information outside the school-system. The main project for the practical work will be on the “Buchenwald Railway Memorial Trail” where you will work for the preservation and maintenance of the former railway path. In addition, you will take part in a remembrance project when you produce memorial stones that commemorate children and young people who were deported to the concentration camp of Auschwitz and murdered there. Study part: National Socialist history.
