Reichsparteitagsgelände - Große Straße Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is the "Great Street" on the "Reichs-Party-Rally-Grounds". It was planned for Nazi Germany's troops to walk down on it, towards for example the gatherings on the Zeppelin Field.

I think this one gives quite a good idea about how big everything was planned on the Reichsparteitagsgelände and on the impressive impact, this all must have had on the people watching the spectacular marches.

There is an information centre right in the Kolloseum, showing how the Nazis knew how to use the media, to keep people in line, so to everyone who wants to understand how the 3rd Reich was possible, I strongly recommend you to visit this place, as this was the place for celebrating themselves.

I also put one picture in WS in sepia, as I think it might be quite an interesting idea

Hi Betolt, great dof gives a feeling of its size. I personally liked the sepia version of it since the cloudy day made the colour version a bit dull.. tfs

Hallo Bertolt
You give here a good idea how this place was to function. We just have to imagine the troops and all that.
Greetings
