Revision as of 19:13, 20 May 2014 by Pbrower2a (talk | contribs) (→Table)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)This is a partial list of streets and squares named after Adolf Hitler during the era of Nazi Germany.
The zeal with which German municipal authorities attempted, immediately after the seizure of power, to play their part in the "National Rising" (Template:Lang-de) is shown by the practice of conferring honorary municipal citizenship on Hitler, and even more by naming a street (Straße), a square or place (Platz), a promenade (Anlage), an avenue (Damm, Allee), a stadium (Kampfbahn), or a bridge (Brücke) after the new chancellor. As early as March and April 1933, a wave of renamings swept through Germany's cities. Most of the examples in the list come from this period.
