In the past few episodes, we were in Munich exploring the history of the rise of Hitler and the Beer Hall Putsch. In this episode, we're venturing over to the city of Landsberg to look at the prison where he was held which later served as the final stop for a number of convicted war criminals of WWII. Along with that, we're exploring a cemetery that may very well hold the highest concentration of evil men of any cemetery plot in the world.

Hitler's prisons were like Disneyland next to the Jewish prisons in Russia and in the Ukraine. At least in Hitlers prisons there were Olympic size swimming pools, commissaries, brothels, soccer fields, theaters, and prisoners were paid with money to spend. None of that was in the Jewish prisons.

My wife and I were at Landsburg the past fall. We actually went into the parking lot and took pictures until a guard came out and told us we couldn’t. He was actually very nice and gave us a little history of the prison and told us Hitlers cell was now a storage area. We did not know about the graveyard but knew about the concentration camp just outside of town. It was one of three work camps that is still original and slowly falling apart. Very interesting

Our guide told us the Belgians did not want them buried on their land, but I guess there was no way to get them back to Germany at that time. I also had no idea so many were actually hung/shot after the war. I had only read where many Nazis escaped their death sentences one way or another. Thank you for this great information!

I had a colleague who'd become like one of those executed at Landsberg if the people behind his radical ideas (environmentalists in his case) ever got into power and he had the chance. He honest to god believed that all those who are not true believers in his radical green ideology should be killed as a start towards depopulating the planet with the end goal of having the population brought down to a few hundred thousand of those "worthy to be stewards of the environment". When Covid started and the death rates were very high initially he was ecstatic, proclaimed for all to hear that "here is Mother Nature saving the planet from mankind".

Not sure what the significance of this particular symbol is. One of the oldest uses of the cross symbol is the four spokes of the circular zodiac calendar which represent the two solstices and the two equinoxes that mark the changing of the seasons, and the circle represents the path of the sun, moon, and planets through the constellations. Even in Christian iconography you often see the crucifix depicted with a circle centered on the point where the vertical and horizontal lines intersect.

I'm surprised they were buried in a cemetery and not cremated and the ashes scattered as the top Nazis (Goering, Ribbentrop, Kaltenbrunner, et al) were.

I worked on a book for a Holocaust survivor. Her husband (a German Jew)was one of those bilingual soldiers who interrogated many of these war criminals who were executed. He found the kommandant who killed his parents. The kommandant was among those who was executed and the only execution the man attended.

@frenchfan3368 Жыл бұрын

Yes, these Nazi leaders actions were abominable and inhumane in every aspect but we do not really know if they "rejected Christ their entire lives." Let's hope that some of them came to place their trust in Christ before they were executed. The grace of Christ is beyond all human comprehension and available to all as bestowed on the thief at the cross.

@willoutlaw4971 Жыл бұрын

They were Christians. Just like now you have Christians who are doctrinaire cross wearing, bible toting segregationist, racist purveyors of evil who attend church every Sunday morning. The thief on the cross was not a murderer let alone a mass murderer. I will bet all of the souls of these killers were greeted into hell by Satan himself.
