Street crowds and Hitler's motorcade, Nuremberg 1937
SS men hold back crowds at a street corner, a Brauhaus Nürnberg lorry carries young men, and Hitler's open cars pass down a flag-lined avenue.
From high windows the streets of Nuremberg are packed from wall to wall. SS men with linked arms hold a crowd on the pavement as a black saloon swings round a corner, a brewery lorry lettered Brauhaus Nürnberg rolls across a square with young men in uniform crowded on its open bed, and a tram edges through the throng. Down a broad avenue hung with swastika banners, a column of open touring cars passes between crowds several deep, their arms rising in salute.
During the rally week hundreds of thousands of visitors poured into the old imperial city, which Hitler had made the permanent home of the party rallies in 1933. Hitler drove from his quarters at the Hotel Deutscher Hof to the grounds through streets like these.
