@@VicStefanu I could not even imagine how I would react to the same situation only speculation I respect your decision you've been there I have not much love from Tennessee
I was stationed at Johnson Barracks in the early 80s with the U.S. Army. After the killing of children with handicaps by Adolf Hitler. I felt it was fitting and ironic for us to hold the special Olympics for the children there in 1982 and 1983. I felt that it was also a memorial to those who were killing for no reason but that they were physically challenged. I enjoy the work you are doing. Thank you.
Thanks Vic. Me, my wife and our two sons were everywhere you were, on our trip there,but Silver lake. I was creeped out walking around with them, a desolate area. Not many people. You're there alone. Thanks again.
This is AMAZING. Your video is instructive, full of accurate information, and just the best tour of the area I have seen. I kind of feel like I've been to Nuremberg and got to see the place for myself. Vic - five stars. I'm subscribing to your channel and look forward to seeing your others! Greetings from New Orleans.
Albert Speer once planned to recreate all of Berlin with the same neoclassical theme that you see here. I think he found the Nuremburg structures and the scene design for the rallies as one of his proudest achievements. He was a frightening figure: A German from an aristocratic family and with a university education that fully succumbed to Hitler's will. Many thanks, Vic.
Vic,I am following your videos.. this will really help me to share the past not as lively as you do it.. atleast for an extent I can do a justice to my students,as in I am a teacher.. may God bless you..
Really respect your choice not to stand on that platform. My wife and I went to Berchtesgaden years ago (just as a day excursion from Austria and for the views) and I wish we hadn't, there was a bad energy. Although the GI autographs in the fireplace wiped away most of that. Great video, first of yours I've seen. Subbing now :) Ps all the best from Ireland
Love all of your videos. Very informative. Wondering if you will do a video on Pompeii and ancient Rome. I think that would be interesting. Thanks again for such a great video. I can't even imagine how much time and money it would take for you to do all of these videos. Keep up the great work.
DITTO to Ronnie (below) What is the camera you use, Vic ?? It seems to be a very good unit ! Do you use a "shake damper" unit ?? Spooky that there were so few other folk around...on a Sunday , early morning or late afternoon ?
Hi, no, I do not use a shake damper.. After 3,000 videos, I can handle the camera very well (I think) even while walking around.. I use exclusively SONY equipment, this video was taped on an a-5000 camera.. It was around 10am on a Sunday, not too many tourists make it this far from Nuremberg..
good video with lots of historical context given. Makes me wonder what would have been had the Germans not embarked on a world war? Thanks for bringing this to you tube.
The area as it looks now,was much more different during and shortly after the war, a lot of the buildings were destroyed by the american army in 1945, after this nature took over and the area was rebuilt with modern architecture.
The sites seem very plain and have a distinct atmosphere to them. Thank you for the video. I'll be going to Gdańsk in two weeks time and maybe to the Malbork Castle.
Thank you for this video highlighting this amazing history, much of which is being left to go to ruin. I spent a large part of a year working on a project in Nuremburg and got fascinated with the historical aspects of the city. Nuremberg is a beautiful city with lots of great museums both to the holocaust and the historical city itself and the people were so welcoming. Watching this has made me want to go back!
Thanks for this video, it must be difficult to visit these places of known evil. I think the serene nature of the place contrasts strongly with the past. Makes me think about peace and the bigger picture. Same with your incredible Dachau and other Nazi videos.
Hello my friend and thank you for your wonderful comments. It takes a lot of effort to create all these videos and I always enjoy receiving such positives messages like yours from viewers from around the world..
@@VicStefanu Vic.....like you i also visited many WW2 sites (mostly Germany and Poland) and my reason being, when i was last in education in the early 1960's it wasn't taught, in fact it wasn't even on the school curriculum. Now of course it is. Sourcing information was extremely difficult....no internet back then! I relied mostly on books (scarce) but the first real breakthrough in UK came with the excellent "World at War" series of documentaries by which time i was 24 years old. That showed me what i had wanted to learn in school....but couldn't.
The Nuremberg trials were held in a building about 2 kilometers west of the historic centre. The sites that you see in this video are located a little over 3 kilometers southeast from the centre.
thom dauphin The trials were held in Nuremberg for mostly practical reasons, not symbolic. The Palace of Justice was chosen because it was one of the very few buildings still standing after the Allied bombing that were A) large enough and B)had prisoner facilities attached.
@@VicStefanu Just make ya think how much evil had stud there and how many people could follow such evil and be fooled by such . And now here we are. How long ago was that? ( And there are still those who think that this want-a-be Hitler Trump won the election. ) Hitler put put up a wall that divided that country"Fears me not just for this country but for this hoal world "
I love the history that you tell along with your video's description I know this takes lots of time THANKS
Hi Ronnie, thank you for your wonderful comments!!
War history is interesting
@@VicStefanu I'm curious why you did not stand where the feuher stood
@@quintinmcclearen7640 Just a personal choice, I felt negative energy around the area..

Thanks Vic. Me, my wife and our two sons were everywhere you were, on our trip there,but Silver lake. I was creeped out walking around with them, a desolate area. Not many people. You're there alone. Thanks again.
I agree, that lake was very creepy indeed... especially when I started walking on the ruins of the stadium, next to the lake!!
Very informative and special thanks for showing the historical places where people like me can never go. Once again thank you.

Was the 'Great Road' and the Congress building built w/ from the granite quarry at Mauthausen?
Yes... a very sad fact that not too many historians mention...

Albert Speer was a brilliant Architect.

Excellent and thorough treatment of this well-documented territory. One of the best, really. Also the tour of the historic section of the city itself.
Hello my friend, thank you for these wonderful comments! 👍👍👍
on a nice sunny day it looks the perfect spot for a few cold beers, am i right vic ?
I am not really sure what the laws are (regarding drinking alcohol outdoors) in Germany..
good video with lots of historical context given. Makes me wonder what would have been had the Germans not embarked on a world war? Thanks for bringing this to you tube.
Europe would have been a completely different place, but for the Second World War.. Thank you for viewing my videos!!

Greetings from Argentina!
Thanks for watching! 👍👍👍
If germany would have won the war,they had plans to build a large capital germanica. Fortunately it never came so far and a lot remained never built.
True... The plans of that city are shown in the film 'The Downfall...
vic another good video
Thank you!!
Were the mosaics along the top of the colosseum at one time a Federal Eagle design? It looks like they could have been but were altered post war?
I have seen pictures of that Eagle but the whole structure around it has been demolished..
Vic Stefanu - World Travels and Adventures Thanks! I appreciate that you respond to all questions!
I dont blame you for not wanting to step on the podium where Hitler gave the speeches. That would give me nightmares!
Thank you for viewing my videos, I am glad that you agreed with me!!
History in the face does not increase in the news and in the interior look and achieve
