Martin Wieser visited the former #Stasi prison – the Berlin #Hohenschönhausen #Memorial – together with international students. The tour focused on the history of the remand prison and the fate of those who were imprisoned there. A powerful and first-hand insight into German #ContemporaryHistory.

Question: does the "minimalism" stereotypically attributed to Northern and Central Europe have any connections to Protestantism? I'm specifically thinking of the latter's aniconic/iconoclastic tendencies.

Schleichende Aneignung, symbolische Markierung und Gewalt
Die extreme Rechte und ihre Praktiken der Raumaneignung in Deutschland nach 1945
Daniel Gerster

Abstract
Historical research on the extreme right after 1945 has gained attention in Germany only in recent years. Focusing initially on social actors, their organizations and ideologies, it has now turned to new questions and approaches. This article shows how research can profit from a spatial historical approach. It focusses on practices of spatial appropriation and examines the ways in which the extreme right in Germany attempted to occupy (public) space and to impose its ideas of order after 1945. Three modes of spatial appropriation repeatedly used by the extreme right take center stage: gradual occupation, symbolic marking, and violent seizure. These are ideal types which are intertwined in historical practice, as is shown with regard to the so-called »nationally liberated zones« of the 1990s and 2000s. In general, the article shows how a spatial-historical approach can help to deconstruct one-dimensional descriptions. It allows the simultaneity of different perceptions and practices to be depicted and incorporates the perspectives of those affected by the extreme right as well as those of other actors.

Keywords: Extreme Right, Germany, Spatial Appropriation, Nationally Liberated Zones, Violence

In #Bremerhaven gab es in den 1950er/60er-Jahren Lokale, die »Oberbayern« hießen oder über ein »Bräustübl« verfügten. Was diese Merkwürdigkeiten damit zu tun haben, dass heute vor 80 Jahren die Briten die Stadt, die seinerzeit noch #Wesermünde hieß, den US-Amerikanern zur #Besatzung übergaben […]

Another beautiful shot in a room of the historic hunting lodge. It shows a breathtaking ceiling painting of a gathering of angels, some of whom are raining flowers and blossoms from the sky. This painting is surrounded by a balustrade made of stone pillars, against which smaller angels lean with their arms to watch the herons flying over the scene. On the wall directly below is an artistic stucco sculpture of a reclining woman in her robe. I captured this scene in this black and white photo. In the right-hand area, you can see an artistic depiction of falconry, which underlines the importance of this castle and the pastime it was for high society at the time.

A historic rail bus can be seen in the black-and-white photo waiting for departure in the covered station. It's a journey back in time; a private club occasionally offers commemorative rides on it.
