This tour is underrated. Felt like I was there and learned lots of things I hadn't heard of before.
Of course this is never mentioned but the National Socialist era must have been one of the greatest periods of in the erection of government buildings in German history. The entire era only lasted 12 years and most of the major projects were halted at the start of the War. So taking that into account the amount of concrete, steel and stone consumed must have been some sort of record. Also the edifices were constructed in the excellent tradition of the way the Germans do everything, not the sloppy half-assed way the communists do things for example. Albert Speer was a genius.
As Mister Burns would say: unlike that bum Schindler, my ammunitions actually worked!
..."the era ONLY lasted for 12 years.." " Albert Speer was a genius". ..Human stupidity and space are endless.
@@valmontv Two quotes an an insult simply make you look ill-educated, which I'm sure is not the case.
Most people would say that the Nazi Party existed from 1933 to 1945, and that for Speer to be the only pivotal Nazi to have escaped the noose despite being entirely complicit in the abuse and mass-murder of untold amounts of prisoners must make him a pretty clever, albeit a devious, evil and unscrupulous (to say the least) man.
@@xenu-dark-tony I am fully aware of how long the rule of the Nazi party lasted. I think that even 12 hours is too much for such a monstrous accumulation of evil that it represents. That was the meaning of my comment. As for A. Speer, I believe that he was a mediocrity who made a great living fulfilling the crazy wishes of that maniac Hitler, which as we know were fulfilled with the help, robbery, slave labor of people from the conquered territories. After all, the man did very well when he died in his bed, unlike many other victims of that terrible regime.
I've seen a number of presentations of this subject over the years and must say Johannes has by far given the best one. Excellent in every aspect. Thank you!
Absolutely fantastic tour. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am a US citizen that considers Nurnberg my home town. Now that I live back in the US with no real possibility of returning to that great city, finding great efforts like this to bring some of that great city and some of my youth back to me as well is a joy.
Hi! I just want to thank you for this tour. When I visited I used this as my guide as I walked along the whole area.
Loved this tour with you, Mr. Pechstein! Well done and really interesting!
Great vid!! Doing this today with your video tour in hand. All the way from Texas!
I was there in winter 2007. They had drained the lake for maintenance and there was a slight fog in the early morning. To see the Doku-Centrum looking out of the foggy air was very spooky ... There was hardly anyone about, except a couple of bus loads of German teenagers who were being exposed to the Doku-Centrum exhibits to educate them on the dangers of fascism
Very well presented..Thank you....I visited before the Internet and found that Nurnbergers were reluctant to tell me where it was....But I found the Zeppelin field and decay had set in 30 years ago....Speer wanted solid Limestone and he was presented with tiles....the whole thing was built In a hurry and like most Nazi buildings....A facade.....I need to get back soon as Nurnberg is a fabulous city.
Excellent video. I’m glad the buildings weren’t destroyed after the of the war. History is better believed when it can be shown as tangible proof of what really happened. Your explanation of the different sights was also well done.
Wonderful tour thank to Johannes .
Thank you for presenting this tour, and for it being done in English.
This is by far the best documentary on this topic I'veseen. Well done and educational.
Thank you for a very professional guidance. We were there for a coupe of years ago and now we got added information. Nürnberg has much to show. All the best.
Thank you for giving us this free tour!
Would love for you to do more throughout Germany in the Nazi time period.
Outstanding presentation and much thanks.
Ya lo hicierom pero los chorlitos cabeza hueca , NO lo saben valorar ni ver..😅😅 una lástima..HERMOSOS DOCUMENTALES A FAVOR
@16:25: That granite road was a perfect surface for getting that massive, loud "in-step" marching sound (like a locomotive) when the soldiers are marching in perfect cadence....that Albert Speer knew exactly what he was doing.
I stumbled across this place when visiting Germany in the late 80s. Fascinating tour, really interesting to find out more about the place
That was really excellent. I will look at other videos on this channel. Greetings from Prague. CZ
johannes pechstein very well described tour you did, really enjoyable, would love to see more
Very nice tour!!! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for this tour in English.
I am visiting Nuremberg in October to soak in as much WW2 knowledge as I can.
Do you offer an in person tour? Or can you recommend one please?
Like how many feet wide was the original complete grandstand? and we always see the front, like what does the back look like?
If you search for "14. Back of the Zeppelinfield Grandstand" you will find many images of the rear of the grandstand.
the greatest periods in German history
I left my lpve ,”Lanie “ in Nurnberg as I went to my next duty post in Nam. I was wounded in combat and in hospital for months . Unable to write Lanie , I guess she forgot me. I was disabled from my injuries and thought not to burden her. As far as she knew I dumped her. I hope she had a good life.
Great tour and explanation. Thank you
Amazing tour! Thank you for tall this information and guidance! Planning to visit Nuremberg for a personal history tour and this video has been extremely helpful.
Completely understandable why the Golden Hall remains closed to the public. Nonetheless, I heard that the room is still accessible to paid tours, is this correct? It certainly looks amazing and I'm sure it adds even more to the experience when visiting the field.
I matched on Zeppelin filed on Our Memorial Day aka German - American Day. It was all about parades , pretzel and beer .Gemultkicut.
This is excellent
Awesome historic places I hope to visita someday..!!
I must admit, this was on the ball, by far one of the best tours ive seen on the subject. I thank you. I would pay good money to go on a guided tour with yourself.
The other place i would love to visit is obersalzburg!!
Im in the UK, so maybe one day! Before my days are up.
What could have been....😢
I was stationed there at the Sud Kaserne in 1966.
"My spirit will rise from the grave and the world will see that I was right."
A.H.
Aldous Huxley? 🤔
They even had guide lines for the blind pn the parade road!!
things were so much better then
Ahhhh..mmnnnn. I can smell the delivious aroma of Nurnberger Bratwurst being sold at the Volksfest held there each spring.
You must got to the old Army barracks
I am Very interisted in ww2 ,and ITS Grand buildings, i would like Some day to visit Nürnberg i have just in august drive through the city,but with a turist bus,i har been in Krakow in Polen.susie Denmark.?
Ja ja
its a shame they lost!... they would never of allowed the world to be what it is today
Very well done, I’ve actually been there before. Back in 1982 it was fenced off from the public, a few holes cut through for entry. Still intimidating experience 😃
Its strange when you go there, the stands are really not that big and look cheap, especially the collumns, they look so unoriginal. Like a cheap version of rome, without cultural influences. The whole place is full of sharp edges, you feel hurt there. Its no match size wise compared to something like wilhelmshöhe.
Its interesting that the 3rd reichs emblems fell apart so fast.... but speer had envisioned hard stone, so that future generations could see the ruins. Well, i dont want to know how many worshippers go there each day, mixed with tourists. Maybe even vigils.
The Zeppelin field tribune needed maintenance and that's why it fell apart, many others simply weren't completed or destroyed. I think projects like the stadium made little sense in a city with a smaller population than what it could accomodate and as the guide pointed out it wasn't practical for people at 100m above ground as they could barely see what was happening in the field. They could've done it, sure, but as we can see in stadiums today it appears 100 thousand is the sweet spot between capacity and good arrangement and comfort for the spectators.
En CASTELLANO plis.. 😅 Sino dedito abajo 👇.
