n exhibit at the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site in Dachau, Germany. The exhibit features a glass case displaying a chess set. The chess set is made of carved wood, with some pieces appearing darker and others lighter. The chess board is a checkered pattern. Text panels are visible to the left and right of the glass case, providing information about the exhibit. The panel on the right, titled "Chess set of an unknown prisoner, 1933," states that the chess set was carved by a prisoner in the spring of 1933 using an eating knife. The text further explains that chess was a popular pastime for prisoners, helping to entertain them and keep their minds active, and that some prisoners formed playing pieces out of bread. The background of the exhibit appears to be a wall with text.
