Adolf Hitler Platz, sometimes known as Hitlerplatz, is a square in Berlin, Germany, dedicated in honor of Adolf Hitler. It was designed by architect Paul Baumgarten and completed in 1939. The square was originally a popular gathering place for Nazi party members and for military parades. After World War II, the square was renamed Lützowplatz to remove any connections to Hitler.<\/p>\n

Hitlerplatz is a reminder of mankind’s ability to be both influenced by great leaders and also of their capacity for destruction. Many have grappled with the implications of his presence and the actions that followed in his wake. The lyrics of the English version of the song “Hitlerplatz” take on the nuances of this complex debate.<\/p>\n

The song starts by asking “who will stand beneath the flag of war” – indicating not just the heroism of those that defend their country, but also the destruction they cause. This contradictory emotion is further explored in lines like “the devil’s voice echoes in my head”, as well as “we are not swayed by your intent”. The lyrics signal a person torn between loyalty and hatred, and leave no conclusion.<\/p>\n

The song also reflects on the power of dictatorships, which often begin with good intentions but soon turn into something far more sinister. As the narrator sings, “No more prayer and no more ease, No more mercy at the seams”, one can’t help but think of how easily a person can be swayed by a strong leader.<\/p>\n
