Panorama-b’s multi-media tour „Berlin during the Third Reich“ was designed in cooperation with the Berlin Underworlds Association. It complements their permanent exhibition Mythos Germania, shown in their rooms at Gesundbrunnen underground station.
The two-hours long tour is centered around Wilhelmstrasse, the government quarter of the former Reich capital, whose history and architecture is illustrated through video and audio clips as well as numerous historical photographs.
The first tour stop introduces the redevelopment plans Adolf Hitler and Albert Speer had for Berlin. It focuses on the 6 kilometres long North-South Axis with the Great Hall as the architectural highlight.
Moreover, 40 short descriptions of prominent Nazi buildings and building ensembles are integrated into our app, presenting the wide spectrum of Nazi construction activities in Berlin. The panorama-b app is available for iphone and Android devices.

Pretty much. It looks far better than current modernist buildings. Most people loath those things and find them alienating, but architects keep on designing more of those glass and steel monstrosities. And that's not my opinion, it has been polled extensively. But architects shrug and keep going as if nothing is wrong. To those saying the Dome would be an eyesore on the skyline: would it really look any worse than the glass towers that pollute many modern cityscapes and that more closely resemble amoebas, dildos or fingers pointing? Also it isn't as if we don't know the way a city built in Neoclassic style looks like: Washington DC.

I really like this classical/Roman style. I really brings out a feeling of civic pride and responsibility. Plus this style is easier the eyes than a lot of "modern" and post-modern architecture. the glass, steel and concrete are hard on the eye because human eyes evolved to look at natural structures like wood, stone and vegetation.

Honestly, I know that this project has been developed during the nazi time, but objectively it's a super cool project with could have been done, just because it was invented during nazism doesn't mean that they couldn't do it, even in italy we have plenty of projects made during the mussolini era that still stand today, such as the entire EUR neighborhood in Rome, the olympic village, the prati neighborhood, the Milan central station, and many many others, like the termini station in Rome or the Santa maria novella one in Florence. So what I want to say is that the people who have committed certain projects don't have to affect the development of those projects, it's wrong letting down these projects just because of the people who invented them, these are brilliant architecture projects!

that great domed building kind of reminds me of modern skyscrapers, almost being tall for the sake of tallness being impressive but with no fine detail which really sets the mind on fire. I'd say there are buildings ten times as small as that that appear all the more impressive because of the immense artistry that went into it. this just looks like a city made to cause fear through the brute force of size. the removal of entire historic districts is by no means limited to the nazis, especially here in British town council members were quite happy to cut lesions into cities and destroy their identities for the sake of roads and 'modernising' in this process they destroyed entire florishing comunities and this is a story told countless times across the world. Obviously, iam in no way defending the nazis but it needed to be said.

Thank you for the well done video using the architectural scale models that were proposed for a new vision of the Third Reich. The architecture's overblown proportions were intended to convey a sense of awe and Nationalism of the new German ascension to power... through Totalitarianism. It was based on Roman grand architecture, and the streamlined geometry of the Art Deco period of the 30's.

it is strange this taste so particular in architecture among dictators. whether it is Hitler, Stalin, Caucescu, Kim the chubby of North Korea or the Chinese leaders, always this same need to destroy the old capital of the country in particular its center built with old historic houses to build imposing buildings there soulless, functional certainly but lacking in aesthetics pleasing to the eye. you need mastoc, sturdy walls, concrete thoroughly and above all always in the form of bunkers as if they were under siege. the avenues are very wide one can make several tanks roll in front, the gigantic places one can station whole regiments there. everything is out of proportion, unlike the narrowness of their mind. dictatorships have always favored the useful over the pleasant, even their paintings do not derogate from any fantasy. It is sad, dark and solemn like a prison door ...
