Fire in the Reichstag (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The first days of Hitler's regime is oddly normal for most people. Most are still caught between the growing friction between the Communists and the Nazis, now with the full backing of the State. Thousands flock to Carnival to relax away from politics but the joys are cut short by the Reichstag Fire. Within hours, jackboots storm the streets and break down doors looking for conspirators and enemies. Episode Art Credit: Bundesarchive. CC BY-SA 4.0. Unedited.
