If you visit Dachau, you might be surprised to learn that the camp is right in middle of the town.

When I visited, there was a story about some locals taking a peek over the wall and were apprehended. They were put in the camp for a month or so (going by memory now). After they came out, they refused to talk about it and told everyone else to stay away.

This was before the extermination of the Jews began though - maybe around 1935.
