I was under the impression that Hitler created some of Germany's nature preserves. ... I'd like to hear comments from the German thread denizens. Any other ones beside me :-)? Hallo, liest irgendjemand aus Deutschland mit? The silence is deafening. Ok, so a brief statement by me. My knowledge of the Nazi times is too limited to encompass details about Hitler's nature preservation plans. What I know is that the Nazi movement partially built on the love of nature in romanticism as presented by Rousseau and others. Around the turn of the 19/20th century the "Wandervogel" (birds of passage) movement was widespread; the Hitler Youth tried to exploit its popularity. There weren't many major preservation projects realized by the Nazis, after 1939 the immediate requirements during war time had a much higher priority.
