All joking apart, the German authorities have spent the last 70 years trying to pretend that it didn't happen.
I'm not saying they deny it happened, rather, they'd rather not talk about it and hope nobody ever brings it up in polite conversation.
I did an exchange thing to Bielefeld during my German A Level (Grade C - couldn't be arsed trying) and the girl who stayed with us knew fuck all about the war.
I showed her my history books in my bedroom (Fnaaar!) and she was stunned.
She didn't have a clue.
It's just not taught in their schools. But, to be honest, if it was us, would it be any different....?
Her Dad wasn't too impressed when I went over there and started asking about it.
