The original title: Bevor die Glut verlöscht: Die Erinnerungsarbeit an NS-Tatorten als ein Politisches Lernprojekt

(In Jahrbuch für Pädagogik 2003)

The author reflects upon his experience of reconstructing Nazi history in Germany. All efforts to spread light upon the dark sides of this history end up in the attempt to break the collective silence and to retune the song from “the good old times.” Memorial sites pedagogy and educational policies must decide the relevance of the past for the present, expose local Nazi history, and set the gaze, across the wall of silence, on the future. Tangible memory work and personal experiences of pain are steps towards makingxsubmerged memories, obliterated traces and forgotten places useful again for an education for democracy and tolerance.
