The Topography of Terror Foundation, located on the site that had once housed the editorial offices of the Nazi newspaper Der Angriff (The Attack), has created the first comprehensive exhibition on the print media during the Nazi regime, presenting the foundations of the repressive press system and its influence on the development of the German press landscape. Thirteen selected newspapers (displayed as facsimiles) and journalist portraits illustrate the different journalistic strategies pursued by the newspapers and the leeway in action and thought that was available for publishers, journalists, and readers. The two exemplary chapters focusing on the Reich Party Congress in 1935 and on Goebbels’s Sports Palace speech in 1943 provide a comparison of the reporting in newspapers and magazines, as well as on radio and in the weekly newsreels.
This exhibition can be borrowed from the Foundation. More information at
