Haus der Deutschen Kunst, Munich

Haus der Deutschen Kunst

This was designed by Paul Ludwig Troost; Albert Speer amongst others was one of his pupils. The building was completed in 1937 after his death. In my view this is the best example of Nazi monumental architecture still standing today.

It gives one an insight into of how German cities might have looked if the Nazis had won the war and Hitler’s architectural dreams had become a reality.
