Walk through unprecedented Berlin (25 photos)

I warn you once: This post about ARCHITECTURE !!! If someone tries to discern here the propaganda "for" or "against" a certain ideology, he immediately goes to ... == & gt; ... !!!

So ... the 30th year HHveka. The owners of power in Germany desperately want to perpetuate his rule in architecture as the "Golden Age". For ztogo given the task of "court" architects to create a new look for the best examples of Berlin's world of architectural classics.
The result is rather strange parody of the classic architectural ensembles.
In this photo fragment layout of the "new Berlin" can be seen as the "chief architect" of Germany 30-40-ies Speer saw the embankment of the river Spree, which flows through Berlin (from the same pun: "Spree-Speer»!)
Everything would be fine if only the composition of the "area with a tower" was not "removed" from the Piazza San Marco in Venice (with the exception of the Cathedral):





Himself "the general plan for the reconstruction" of the German capital has been quite extensive. But today, we pass only from the Brandenburg Gate to the "Grosseplatts" (Great Square), no way, fortunately, was not destined to change the face of Berlin.



If you do not recognize this famous illustration of the Brandenburg Gate - it's not surprising. The project Speer they had to become part of a giant structure, which "absorb" them:



In fact, Mr. Speer is not all that he has invented and developed the idea of ​​a "chief architect of all of Germany," the artist-dropout - Adolf Shikelgryubera (you znait kago). Here are just a sketch of the future "Arc de Triomphe", narisovany young future dictator in the late 20s. Rampant megalomania and wounded vanity resulted in ztot "project" where the Brandenburg Gate would simply "gate" through which pass under the shadow of cyclopean "Arc de Triomphe»



Next, the path runs along the central curious wide avenue straight to the "Big Square»



The area relates to the architecture of St. Peter's in the Vatican, obviously trying her "beat."



On the left side is Grosserplatts "Pantheon of Heroes" (you can lredpolozhit, public)



Vklichestvenny portal entrance to the suite of "Pantheon»:



On the other side, "Megaploschadi" located once majestic Reichstag. Now he looks like a modest Chalupki in general "ensemble" area:



Here it is, the dominant «Grosseplatz» - «Palace of the conquered peoples" (ETOGES had to invent this)! With its dimensions of this building clearly it had to surpass, and St. Peter's Basilica and the Capitol. Argue with him in megalomania could only Palace of Soviets.



Of course, not without ideas of the young pads ... Adolf:



The central hall of the "Palace" was supposed to look like Coliseum, to the "arena" is crowded to the many "representatives of the subjugated peoples," and "true Aryans" looked to them from the stands and gave instructions on how to go on living. (Zamette dome drevnermiskogo copied from the Pantheon (the sanctuary of the gods)):



The original "discovery" of the architect & quot ;: imperial eagle standing Murphy, at a certain position of the sun cast a shadow (coupled with a niche), similar to the "great dictator". It's funny, but ...



General view of the night sky (... gee ... gotichnenko ... gee ..)



... The new building of the Reich Chancellery ... (thread who znait cho Ani works? Tax, Chol?)



Even in times of artistic failures, young Adolf thought about how much will have to store the stolen art treasures (very prudently) and has already sketched the National Museum



There are already visible commonalities:



A Genosse Speer rendered all qualitative:



The wide avenues of the "new Berlin" epic decorated sculptures and fountains:



But one still managed to build a building. However, I am more than sure it did not survived to this day in its original form. Most likely it was either destroyed or rebuilt beyond recognition.
This is - the Ministry of Aviation:



Naturally, without eagles then Germany - anywhere!



Also, we could not do without a variety of crosses:



Reception Hall miniisterstva Aviation (of course, not without imitation ancient architects)



Completed its compilation of the only architectural object, which is provided in the plan of reconstruction, but died in the capture of Berlin. This Victory Column. On the wing Nicky crowning column loved sizhyvat angel in Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire. "



The modern form of columns, preserved in the "allied sectors»:
That's all! Thank you for attention! Loved - press & quot; + & quot ;.
