On 1 August 1936, Adolf Hitler opened the 11th Olympic Games in the newly built Berlin Olympic Stadium in front of 100,000 spectators. With a staging of unprecedented perfection, the National Socialists used the "Festival of Nations" to present themselves to Germany and abroad as peace-loving and cosmopolitan. While the persecution of Jews and dissidents continued, the world public only talked about the top achievements of the German athletes, architects and event organisers. A popular comprehensive account of the subject - with numerous previously unpublished photos.
