Altmarkt, Dresden

..February 2011.. ..Dresden..

Dresden, February 13th, 1945….Many people passed away in Dresden that night.

I hope we can make this day about remembering the people who died that night and those who survived but lost family. Many had their lives destroyed.

Their bodies were cremated on this ground in the Altmarkt. This is the small rememberance placed on the spot.

I have been fortunate enough to meet many brave and honest people in Dresden the past 8 months. Thank you for welcoming me. I continue to learn.

var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push([‘_setAccount’, ‘UA-12680478-1’]); _gaq.push([‘_trackPageview’]);

(function() { var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true; ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘http://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’; var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })();
