Hitler’s New Reich Chancellery

- The most prestigious building of the Nazi state once stood here along the northern side of Voßstraße street - Hitler’s New Reich Chancellery. He had toyed with the idea of building a new official residence since 1934. One year later he personally selected its location and the Reich began to purchase the properties.
In no way am I celebrating the evil ideology behind the Nazis, however, I wish the Reich's Chancellery was still in existence because of its unique design and history. It's sad that some of history's greatest buildings are destroyed in war.
I agree, it's part of history and should have been protected, turned into a memorial for the lives lost during WW2. Typical Russian thinking to demolish it.
@@PF9O because the russians have no taste
@@PF9O thats communism for you. Always tearing down everything
Agree, also the bunker complex would be an awesome museum, perhaps the most visited one in Berlin.
@@miroslavmilosevic1040 That would be totally cool! I also wish Hitler’s train was still in tact. Yes, Hitler’s bunker would probably break all kinds of tourists records in Germany. What WW2 history lover wouldn’t want to pass up an opportunity to see the real Fuhur bunker
Although Nazi Germany was very bad, but one thing must be left to it. They had amazing fantastic buildings that definitely fascinate me to this day. Those plans for Germania, when I saw the graphics so building buildings in such enclosures is practically impossible but the designs were really fascinating. It just takes your breath away.
I am fascinated by the reconstruction project of Berlin and the Hall of the People.
I was fascinated by Albert Speer as a youth. When I actually looked at his architecture I found it abhorrent. And I say this as someone who actually enjoys brutalism.

Put of curiosity, why do u have his works? Is it the design itself or the man BEHOND IT?
@@redadmiralofvalyria867 I'm going to assume you meant _why do you hate his works?_
I dislike Speer's work because it lacked imagination. It's a neoclassical aesthetic in a monstrous scale. There's nothing new or groundbreaking in its execution, just a projection of the megalomania of the man whose taste it was meant to manifest. And I don't mean Speer himself, but rather, his boss.
Speer's real talent lay not in architecture, but rather administration. He was a superb technocrat whose bad fortune (or the world's) was to serve the most heinous regime of the 20th century.
To answer your question more succinctly, it was the artless work, not the man himself I disliked.
thanks for posting. such a pity the soviets destroyed the building.
Such a pity that this architectural marvel was replaced with unsightly pre-fab apartments.
An absolute travesty that it was demolished
I was just there - History is Fascinating! Great job Thank u
By the general look, it would be very natural to just substitute the swastika by the GDR symbol, keeping the building.
Later on the Soviets would do a little remodeling to this building and Berlin in general.
A restoration, assuming it could have been done, would have been worth hundreds of millions, perhaps even billions, in tourist dollars for Germany over these past 70 years...
not only they destroyed this beautiful building, but also shulenburg Palace and the whole Wilhelmplatz. Lost architecture.
I wouldn't blame them. Imagine what the Russian people would think when they see this masterpiece. They'd remember their politicians are still taking shits in an outhouse located behind Stalin's barn. German excellence: Making the world feel inferior since 1939.
@@PIFFthePUFF420 Many russian soldiers invading Germany, after seeing what the Normal german FAMILY had, security, prosperity and strong values, left their newly ravaged territories grumbling at the Stalin regime.
Fantastic video, absolutely beautiful architecture and craftsmanship. German engineering and craftsmanship is second to none copied by many.
Thank you for sharing this great video. God bless 🙏
congratulations
to all
for the job
Historic
by the effort
for the dedication
Its looks like the roman empire great architecture impressive
A brutal design for a brutal regime, but impressive none the less. I for one wished it had not been destroyed. As a latter day visit would have displayed the absolute megalomania of Hitler x the third reich to future generations. I understand that part of the marble from the building, was used in the repair on a nearby station of the underground railway system.
You can disagree with the politics, but I'm fairly sure most would agree that this would have been much better on that site than the disgusting prefab estate (though it's not as bad as the ones here in London) that they replaced it with. This is a bit like ISIS destroying ancient sites, artifacts and monuments. It's history, it teaches a lesson; it should remain intact. Frankly, the Soviets were idiotic brutes.
Yup
Germany has kept plenty of Nazi artifacts. I think we’ve learned of the lesson that we need to learn. You know as well as I that if this building still stood it would become a place of veneration for neo-Nazis. I mourn that the Nazis tore down the beautiful and historic building that stood in this place beforehand.
It was already in ruins and this building is not even that impressive. They should rebuild the old building which used to be before this
Ding ding. Maybe they're trying to hide what the Germans really did. History is written by the victors and the victors aren't as innocent as you've been led to believe.
@@KA_Videos let's be real this is better than the Pentagon today and it was 70 years ago.
It remained as rubble till 1966? Is that what she said?
1956
Steven Torrey 1956
hmm
Unfortunately you left out the Mosaic Room.
Some of the 3rd Reich architecture wasn't great (the Berghof), but some was outstanding. I saw Templehof airport a few years back, very impressive.
Can you tell us if einstein's office still exist in humbold university please?
Maybe this article can help you: www.berliner-zeitung.de/archiv/heute-vor-91-jahren-traf-albert-einstein-in-berlin-ein-wo-der-nobelpreistraeger-in-der-stadt-lebte-und-liebte-das-schoenste-sollen-unsere-zusammenkuenfte-sein-li.1042996
Sheshooled.... What's Sheshooled?????
It is so exaggerated it is even laughable. If building this is considered a waste, demolishing it is even worse!
12 hour shift
Truth and Justice for Germany 🇩🇪
If you asked moi I would say that they should've reconditioned it and used it as the world's biggest mental institution for the care of the criminally insane.
What brainwash can do...
@@cas3003 Yes, exactly, the idiots that were brainwashed by Hitler should be in that institution, you're wise to reiterate.
@@ugaugauga488 I don't think the idiots brainwashed by Hitler was half as bad as the people brainwashed to hate Hitler without knowing the real reasons he was to be hated. 🤣Go read your history books kido
Drip
same architectural style as that of the Soviets
same regime same dictator same youth
Hitler-Stalin the twin brothers of ignominy
same ugliness same brutality they are equal
everything is identical in one or the other
Lol. Do you ever not talk out of your ass
Ugly building!
Tried to imitate Ancient Greek architecture, but did not have the finesse and the "keep of meter" that Ancient Greece had
Rather approaching Spartan architecture ( the Doric rythm), but even Doric Rythm was elegant
However, this was better than hating Ancient Greece
