The Nazis stole millions of pieces of art, mostly pieces that were made from the end of the of the 18th century up until the 1900 's. Hitler ordered his soldiers to steal the art to gain power over other cultures.

The Haus der Kunst, or House of Art, is an art museum located in Munich, Germany. The rich history of the museum and the city in which it lies is strongly tied to the Nazi party’s rise to power. The construction of the exhibits and the museum itself was strongly propelled by Hitler’s efforts and his opinions on art: on what to preserve and what to destroy. The museum and what it portrays has changed in many ways from the original vision Hitler held for it, survived through WWII, and still remains

The Pro-Life Nazi March The picture of a bloody fetus torn apart by a surgeon's scalpel danced overhead in the cloudy sky.

“Hitler is a monster of wickedness, insatiable in his lust for blood and plunder” (Churchill). These are the words of Winston Churchill, who was the British Prime Minister. Churchill, in my opinion, is the most effective political leader when it comes to power of language, manipulation, and words.

For the past half century, the world has blamed Nazi Germany for the horrible acts that took place during World War II and for the deaths of millions of Holocaust victims.
