This square white tin-glazed tile is hand-painted with a townscape with two Avro Lancaster bombers in the sky and a inscription below “Thanks Eisenhower! – 29 April 1945”. On 29 April 1945 the Allied forces moving towards Munich liberated the Dachau concentration camp. The town on the tile can be identified as Dachau and the inscription thanks the American general Eisenhower for the liberation. |
