Third Reich sites in Berlin
I have to admit I haven't covered nearly as many Third Reich sites in Berlin as I have Cold War ones, but I know a lot of people come here looking for information on them, so here's what I've got so far.
-
Ernst Sagebiel's monumental airport building, designed in 1934.
-
The memorial to the Nazi book burning on Bebelplatz.
-
The 1930s hall where Klaus Kinski once appeared as Jesus, plus an American listening post on an artificial hill named after the devil.
-
A prussian victory column, modified and placed in the middle of Friedrich II's former hunting ground by the Nazis, with underpasses by Albert Speer.
-
A very large block of concrete, built to test the ground in preparation for Hitler's remodeling of Berlin.
-
Passing by the memorial to the Berlin Airlift, I give a brief history of the events it commemorates, plus a few words on Tempelhof airport and Hitler's plans for Berlin.
