Himmler’s museum given an image makeover to highlight horrific Nazi atrocities
May 1st, 2010 - 5:21 pm ICT by ANILondon, May 1 (ANI): Nazi officer Heinrich Himmler’s erstwhile spiritual retreat in Wewelsburg, Germany, is rumoured to be haunted and is the preferred rendezvous of Neo-Nazis and Satanists.
These unwanted visitors are a growing menace and the administration at Wewelsburg is looking to give the place an image overhaul.
It has opened the world’s first permanent exhibition dedicated to the SS, and the exhibits will contain Nazi memorabilia including horrifying accounts of Nazi brutality in concentration camps.
The museum is looking to make a complete departure from its existing image as a legacy of Himmler’s occult prepossession. This will also dispel Himmler’s diabolic reputation and its dark allure that underpins the appeal the SS still holds amongst Right-wing extremists.
“We reserve the right to throw people out,” said Heinz Koehler, senior manager at the castle.
According to The Times, the notorious Himmler was known for his love of occult. He adopted the use of the Black Sun, a wheel with twelve spokes that is supposed to signify the death of the Christian God.
He dreamed of replacing Christianity with a racially based pagan cult, and Wewelsburg was to be the centre of the ‘New World’, the paper said.
The Black Sun was to be the centre of the centre; the place where in June 1941, he instructed his commanders to go out and “kill 30 million Slavs”, it added.
