Napoleons Tomb Part 6

There are a few floors that are full of displays. As I mentioned earlier, it was built as housing/hospital and you can see that the interior has not been changed too much over the years. You walk down long hallways that are filled with displays and each of the old rooms are also filled with all sorts of memorabilia. The most touching was the wing that contained items from the concentration camps.

There were articles of clothing, often with the prisoners picture beside them. Some had pictures of the person prior to capture as well as how they looked when they were liberated. It was quite emotional.
A piece of barbed wire from Dachau, the worst of the camps.
