Postcards numbers 16 to 34 relate to those places having the greatest significance in Adolf Hitler’s early political life. With the exception of Landsberg Prison, all were located in the Bavarian capital, Munich. From the Sternecker Bräustübl, where Hitler first encountered the Deutscher Arbeiterpartei (DAP; German Workers’ Party) in September 1919, to the impressive buildings around the Königsplatz, the centre of Nazi power in Munich when victory had been achieved. By July 1921, less than two years later, Hitler had won the internal battle for control of the party, by then renamed the Nationalsocialistische Deutscher Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP; National Socialist German Workers’ Party) and emerged its undisputed leader. München – Hauptstadt der Bewegung (Munich – Capital of the Movement) was how the Nazis described Munich. This popular slogan appeared as a caption on numerous postcards, then later as part of the postmark on anything posted in the city during the Third Reich.
