The city was almost completely destroyed by Allied air raids in World War II on March 7, 1945, six weeks before American troops occupied the town. Afterwards it was rebuilt with typical GDR concrete slab architecture (Plattenbau) and became a major industrial centre of East Germany. Since German reunification in 1990 many historic buildings have been restored.
Recent news: Dessau has gained notoriety for the death of a convicted African drug trafficker and failed asylum seeker in his cell at a Dessau police station. Tied to his bed because he was drunk and violent, he then set his mattress on fire with a lighter causing his own death. Of course the media and a sympathetic judge blamed the police.
