Just six decades ago, Munich bore the official title, "Hauptstadt der Bewegung" - the Capital of the Nazi Movement. This was the city that the Allied Supreme Commander General Eisenhower called "the cradle of the Nazi beast".
Munich was the birthplace of the Nazi Party and the home of its headquarters. The voice of Adolf Hitler resounded around the public squares and streets of Munich before being heard anywhere else in Germany. As the stage upon which some of the Nazis' most notorious crimes, from Hitler's failed Putsch to the horrific Kristallnacht - the largest anti-Semitic pogrom seen in western Europe for centuries and a dismal milestone on the road to the Holocaust - were launched, Munich was the nursery of a movement that would shake humanity with some of the most infamous and terrible events in history.
In a unique and fascinating tour, the guide will open up this hidden history for you.

You'll see the beer-halls which hosted the first small gatherings of the fanatics who one day would lead the Third Reich, and the places where Hitler made his first major speeches.
You'll walk through the streets where Hitler and his Brownshirts fought their way to power, and learn how they did it.
You'll see the official Nazi Headquarters from where he bullied the world.
You'll see buildings that bear the scars of the Second World War.
The irony is that while much of central Munich was devastated by Allied bombing, many Nazi buildings survived and still stand today. And standing alongside them are memorials to the city's many victims of Nazism, including those who sacrificed their lives in opposing its hateful ideology.
You'll see all these sites and hear their story. Nowhere else can you experience a tour like this because no other place has a history quite like this.
