Dachau Trials

The Dachau Trials were a series of military tribunals held after World War II to prosecute Nazi guards and personnel responsible for war crimes at the Dachau concentration camp in Germany. Conducted by the Allied forces, these trials aimed to hold individuals accountable for atrocities committed during the Holocaust, including murder, mistreatment, and inhumane experimentation. They involved gathering evidence, testimonies, and presenting cases in court, leading to convictions and sentences. The Dachau Trials were part of broader efforts to seek justice for victims and establish accountability for wartime crimes committed under Nazi rule.
