Good, bad, or indifferent... history is still history.

"...The baptismal font is guarded by a wooden statue of a stormtrooper from Adolf Hitler's paramilitary Sturmabteilung (SA) unit clutching his cap. Friezes depicting the eagle of the Reich and helmeted soldiers' heads have been carved into a giant stone arch framing the chancel. The organ was used at the 1935 Nuremberg rally of the Nazi party and legend has it that the church was originally meant to be named after Adolf Hitler. Indeed, the only thing that might irk the Führer were he to inspect the building now is the absence of swastikas -- there used to be plenty, but they have been scratched out from the walls because the Nazi symbol is illegal in Germany."

Stormtroopers of Jesus:

"...In the early 1930s the Protestant church came under the influence of a racist and fascist movement called the "German Christians" -- called "stormtroopers of Jesus," by the group's leader and founder Rev. Joachim Hossenfelder."
