Dachau is a town in Bavaria, Germany, located about 20 kilometers northwest of Munich. While the town has a history dating back to the 9th century and was once known for its artists' colony in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it is primarily remembered for its significant World War II history.

The Dachau concentration camp, established in 1933, was the first Nazi concentration camp in Germany and has been preserved as a memorial site and museum since 1965. Today, Dachau is a modern town that combines its historical heritage with contemporary life. The old town features baroque architecture, including the Dachau Palace (Schloss Dachau) situated on a hill overlooking the town. The palace grounds offer views of Munich and the Bavarian Alps. The town maintains several cultural institutions and museums that document both its artistic heritage and its crucial role in preserving the memory of historical events.
