Sachsenhausen architecture's best for barbaric goals

These days sees special commemorations taking place at the former Nazi death camps. Seventy years ago this month the allied armies arrived at the gates of most of the camps.

It was the turn of Sachsenhausen and Ravensbrück today.

German Foreign Minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier spoke at  Sachsenhausen. He said remembrance has no expiry date.

"The crimes of the National Socialist regime are incomparable to any others," Frank-Walter Steinmeier said at the Sachsenhausen memorial on Sunday, "they make us shiver."
At the camp north of Berlin, liberated on April 22 and 23 of 1945, Steinmeier alluded to the site itself standing "for the monstrosity of a regime which institutionalised horror." The Social Democrat foreign minister pointed out how the camp - the first to be designed by the Nazis for purpose - was planned "with the best architecture for the completion of barbaric goals."

Israel is working on it.

USA (& allies) have probably already surpassed it.

Not forgetting the Holocaust, but don't forget the sequels either.
