The chilling banality of evil: This is the house where the Holocaust was designed over pastries.

A stark look at the seemingly mundane setting of unimaginable atrocity. At Grossen 1C in Berlin, a group of Nazi officials gathered in 1942, treating the methodical extermination of millions as a routine meeting, complete with refreshments. This deep dive confronts the chilling reality that such systematic cruelty was planned over coffee and cakes. The narrative further grapples with the near-impossible scale of the Holocaust, where the mere existence of a person was deemed a death sentence, tragically claiming an estimated 1.5 million children. It serves as a crucial examination of history, juxtaposing that calculated barbarity with the extraordinary acts of courage that occurred even in the darkest times.
