The last full day in Munich, the Pastor’s wife insisted that we do a little of the touristy stuff near the city. So the Pastor spend his day taking us to the Dachau concentration camp, a local and very old beer hall for a German lunch, and an art museum.
Everyone says you need to see a concentration camp in Germany to understand the history and what this country has been through. It was a very depressing morning, but I agree that it does help to be able to feel empathy and to understand a little more about the trials and hardships people went through and what affect it has had not only on Germany, but on the entire world!
The art museum was alright, though I personally am not a big art person. It was interesting to listen to some of the audio commentary, though.
Overall it wasn’t a bad way to spend the day. I felt like I got to experience some of the culture of Germany and we had great company to do it with!
