One of his grand uncles helped to liberate the concentration camp Buchenwald as an american soldier during world war 2 and so he want´s to visit the place.  Though the place is definetly no fun, I guess many people will be there to give him a warm welcome.

Update 2 :

That´s it, he has been here and now he´s gone. The MDR took some great pictures of the AirForce One landing in Erfurt.

And the white rose for all the victims of Buchenwald – may they never be forgotten.
