This is not all Berlin. Some of those pictures are plans for Nuremberg, Hamburg and Vienna. There are probably some other cities and places mixed in there that i didnt recognize.

Almost nothing was constructed, but Albert Speer ordered a lot of buildings demolished to make room for Hitler's Germania. Between that and Allied bombing, Berlin was eventually able to be rebuilt as a more livable city.
@@eklodry6495 Tf do you mean?? Hitler even stated that himself. The reason why Berlin would be renamed to Germania is bc if the world is united, there are no countries, and no German Reich. Thats why he wanted to give the "german" name to this city. Its called the Welthauptstadt Germania for a reason.
Si de una cantera de Oskarsharm en Suecia, incluso lei un comentario que muchos de esos bloques nunca fueron entregados para construir Germania pero fueron reutilizados para construir una rotonda y algunos edificios en esa ciudad, les llaman bloques de hilter.
Regardless of whether Germany won the war or not, there would've inevitably been some compromises to the sizes of some of these projects at some points along the way. Why? Because not only would erecting structures this unnecessarily gigantic take waaaay too long to complete (meaning their budgets would be constantly ballooning over the course of it's construction), there also wasn't enough steel, granite, and marble left in Europe after the war to make these ambitions a reality. The bottom line is that any real life Volkshalle or Victory Arch would unavoidably have to be shrunk by at least 15-20% just to become feasible. If everything was still kept at the same scale shown in the models and architectural renderings, the front steps alone for the Volkshalle would've been the same as a sports stadium! You could still build these projects to be the largest in the world, they just couldn't have been *this big.*
I don’t understand why people say it was supposed to be this great city … I think individual architectural pieces are great, but as a whole, it’s too monumental. No fun, no frivolity, not at all. How can that be a city? It’s like a was museum.
Germania makes me think of Lord Farquaad's castle and Shrek says "do you think he's compensating for something?" Germania shows Hitler's lack of talent and why he was rejected from art school.
Gosh you people have been so indoctrinated that you automatically assume what you've been told to assume. There is no hope left for anyone but at least you people will be the first to fall (which is happening right now as we speak in 2023).
Only one building, the Volkshalle, was designed by Hitler personally and when he was rejected from the school of painting at the academy of fine arts they told him that he would be admitted into the school of architecture if he applied but that painting wasn't his style and he should become an architect instead
@@cb-7422 Germania would have been the most unoriginal, sterile, overcompensating and megalomaniacal city ever built had it been built. The self importance and scale of Germania is a thin veil for the crippling depression and unhappiness with life Hitler suffered from.
@@cb-7422theyre not, a domed hall that size is pointless at its actual function. Its like how its theoretically possible to build a million seater stadium but there would be no point
At first Speer and A.H did take into account the livability of the city. But as the war went on Germania as a whole became their fictional sandbox. It would have been a cool city if built
Wow, I did not know Speer was that uncreative and mediocre as an architect. Those buildings suck at the very moment they don´t ripoff egyptian, roman or greek architecture. There is much to critizise on Berlin, at least those cave men immetating cultures more advanced than them could not finish to turn it into this frankensteinian monstrosity called "Germania".
@@andreashoernlein It was a silly question, why should we consider them extreme just look at the footage of the Nurember rallies and how they chant sieg heil at the top of their voice and how Hitler screams his head off as he thrashes his arms around and gesticulates. Doesn't that seem even a little extreme to you? I mean come on. A more sensible question would have been "why do we consider National Socialism and Fascism as a form of extremism while other extremist idealogies such as Marxism and Communism get a free pass and that consequently there is a disclaimer saying I don't support extremism at the beginning of videos relating to Fascism or Natsoc but no such disclaimers at on Communist/Marxist videos?" That is a fair question, since on TH-cam there is a clear double-standard there, but to ask why consider fascism or Natsoc is extreme when their extremism is so blatant and so obvious is superfluous.
