German Budapest

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The term "German Budapest" comes from the redesign plans initiated by Adolf Hitler for the Austrian city ​​of Linz , which he described on March 13, 1938 as the " godfather city of the Führer " and the most beautiful city on the Danube , a "German Budapest ", wanted to do, and added that it would be "an unforgivable parody if the descendants of Attila and his Huns owned the most beautiful city on the Nibelungen River".
