Hitler looks more like a Northern German thing to me, even Prussian in some senses. I could be wrong though.

The beer hall putsch is one of the most underratedly important events in world history. It rarely gets any mention in the united states, and NEVER in school, but it seems to me that it would be a great educational opportunity: “When ‘they’ show you who they are, believe them.” Whoever ‘they’ is, it doesn’t matter. Actions speak louder than words. The Nazis reformed themselves into a respectable enough party to win votes, but that’s only if you ignore the vile seditious activity that they had engaged in at their very beginning, including the putsch.
@marcstein251011 ай бұрын
Because the putsch failed some historians are not interested in it. Same as the kapp-putsch of 1920. For them the evil emerged in 1929 when it grew more and more powerful. Otherwise were do you put the line? I am always surprised the DNVP is rarely mentioned in history books. This far-right precursor party to the nazis was in the end the differencemaker when they went into coalition with the nazis and they made everything possible.(if i remember correctly the nazis had gotten 44% in the last elections and it was only with the DNVP’s 7% that they could govern. Interestingly the DNVP’s members dissolved themselves soon and joined the nazi party party.

Incredible how many destinies were cemented on this day lo these many years ago. I wish that I truly believed that any people, any where are too savvy to fall for a person who says that they have simple solutions to complex problems... but I don't. In a way, I think that there's less critical thought now than then. So many villains at this one point in history. Truly a singularity. Thank you Dr. Felton,I wouldn't have known the significance of this date otherwise. Well done.

Very interesting video, Mr. Felton. I wish I had had such detrailed information back in the 60{s when I was stationed in Bavaria and occasionally visited Munich. There is an interesting book on the putsch by Harold Gordon , titled Hitler and The beer Hall Putsch, Princeton, 1972 which I read many years ago. It details the situation in Munich and Bavaria before the failed putsch. There were many other semi' miliary groups around trying to get political traction, many of which were very crazy. Hitler wasn{t the only one. Although the putsch failed the aftermath was a success because it revealed that the Nazis were the only group willing to take action, and in effect left Hitler and the NSDAP the only players left on the field.

Genuinely one of the best things you've done, and that's saying something. I particularly love the 'then and now' views around Munich. I'm sure you are aware of a UK magazine called After The Battle, which compares old wartime photos to contemporary photos, taken from the same spot. Could this be a new branch for your channel ? You must have covered all the little known aspects of WW2 by now, so this could be a new theme going on into the future. Once again, thanks for a great video.

I lived in Munich for one year in 1988-89 (I was 21 y.o.) working at the US army base McGraw Kaserne. I would pass by these places often - the Residenz (to see the musum inside), the Staatoper, Marienplatz, Isartor, Odeonsplatz (to go to the Theatinerkirche, which I loved), and Gasteig (where the Burgerbraukeller once stood and where a I saw a few classical concerts and took German classes). Watching this video brings a whole new dimension to my experince visting these places, and quit honestly, makes me feel creeped out that Hitler was in these places as well. Too bad Hitler didn't get shot dead at Odeonsplatz along with the others. Thank you Dr. Felton for doing the research and for making this video - it's an incredible work.

The Beer Hall Putsch was a reminder that the general population and the mainstream conservative mid-upper class played a significant role in elevating what was then a relative fringe party of agitators to becoming the regime that controlled all significant aspects of country and society.

The stahlhelm, commonly associated with the Wehrmacht, was actually introduced during WW1. During Goering's recovery from his wound during the Putsch, he became addicted to a painkiller, and this affected his health (including his weight). To Röhm, Hitler's non-Marxist socialism was insufficiently radical, and Röhm became a rival, with the SA as his nascent power base. When Hitler came to power, within a few months he converted a former factory temporary housing camp in Dachau into a concentration camp for his political enemies. The location now has a museum that includes a couple of replicas of the buildings in which prisoners were housed. The beautiful woods outside the perimeter wall farthest from the former administration building make visiting an eerie experience.
@watching99134 Жыл бұрын
Goering became addicted to morphine; Hitler also needed to cultivate the support of the traditional military establishment which saw Roehm's SA as a threat (they wanted to replace the aristocratic-professional military with a purely socialist national army).
