Everyone jumps up with cries of healing.” Adolf Hitler is here; it’s his night He races through Munich in his car, from one event to the next. Twelve stages, twelve halls, always the same speech. The NSDAP celebrates from January 27 to 29, 1923, a hundred years ago, the first party congress in its history in its own way. writes the Nazi historian Karl Alexander von Müller, who was present at the “Löwenbräu” and describes the scene in his memoirs.
