By tracing back through the history of Europe from 1919 to the present time, it proposes, with as guides the commitment against Nazism and the fight for freedom during the 30’s and 40’s, vigilance against any xenophobic, racist and anti-Semitic shift and ideology today. It encourage the reflection and involvement of each person, of each young future citizen that you bring here, in a process which is both collective and personal: what does it mean to live together? The European Centre is therefore a gateway, providing historical information and analysis keys before the visit to the historical site of the former Natzweiler camp. The visit to the historical site will then be completed by the visit to the museum, dedicated to the history of the camp and its 70 external Kommandos. Teaching file 1 is also proposed by downloading from www.struthof.fr: What is a concentration camp? the KL-Natzweiler This file is intended for middle-school and high-school students. Most of the answers to the questions posed can be found in the European Centre exhibition spaces (touch terminals, films, permanent exhibition), and some in the museum located inside the former camp. Questions beyond the scope of the exhibition? … as an invitation to reflect and broaden your knowledge!

Newland Clayton K.S. Chun About the Cover: The backdrop of the cover is a photograph of the 28th Infantry Division on August 29, 1944, as they marched down the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, Paris, France, with the Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile in the background. Their celebration was short, because upon the conclusion of the parade, they proceeded through Paris and moved eastward to main- tain contact with the retreating Wehrmacht. The inset photograph is of the key leadership of the European Campaign. It was originally released by the Office of War Information in 1945 and it was captioned: “This is the Brass that Did It.” The photo was taken at the 12th Army Group Headquarters, Bad Wildlungen, Germany, May 11, 1945, three days after the German surrender.
