A look \u2026 at the collection<\/h1>\n
\"Bronze<\/div>\n

Two
\nheavyweight bronze eagles have recently come into the possession of the Dachau
\nConcentration Camp Memorial Site. As an emblem of the Third Reich they originally
\nhung over the entrances to the main barracks of the SS training camp at Dachau.
\nHeinrich Himmler had inaugurated the barracks of the SS Death Head\u2019s Unit
\n\u201cOberbayern\u201d on March 29, 1936. Further Reich eagles made of bronze or stone
\nwere hung above the entrances to the SS camp; they have not survived.<\/p>\n

As the
\nUS Army took over the SS grounds after liberating the Dachau concentration
\ncamp, they left the two eagles where they were. The Americans removed the
\nswastikas from the garland of oak leaf and applied a dab of paint. Recast as
\nthe Bald Eagle, the national symbol of the United States, they have remained
\nlike this down to the present day.<\/p>\n

We would
\nlike to thank the Bavarian Riot Police Dachau, users of the grounds since 1973,
\nfor handing over the objects.<\/p>\n
