Скачать или смотреть The Nazi Swastika Forest Discovery

In 1992, an aerial survey over northeastern Germany revealed a shocking secret hidden in plain sight: a massive, perfect swastika growing in the middle of a dense pine forest.

For over 50 years, this 60-by-60 meter symbol stood undetected through the fall of the Third Reich, the Cold War, and German reunification. It wasn't painted or carved—it was made of living larch trees that turned bright yellow every autumn, contrasting sharply with the surrounding dark green pines.

In this video, we explore the mystery of the Zernikow forest swastika:

The Discovery: How an intern found the "living monument" in aerial photos.

The Science: How deciduous larches were used to create a seasonal "secret message" visible only from the air.

The Origin Theories: Was it the Hitler Youth? A grateful forester? Or a local farmer earning pocket money?.

The Destruction: The failed attempts to remove it in 1995 and the final destruction in 2000.

The Others: The discovery of at least 17 other forest swastikas, including one spelling out "1933".

We also dive into the difficult debate: Should these living remnants of hatred be destroyed to prevent neo-Nazi pilgrimages, or preserved as historical evidence of how deep Nazi propaganda went?.

* Let me know in the comments:* Do you think one of these sites should have been preserved as a warning from history?
