Podium discussion “85 years ago: Hitler in Freiburg“

On July 29, 1932 Adolf Hitler visited the city of Freiburg to hold a campaign speech. 85 years after the Hitler rally the University of Freiburg and the State Center for Political Education view it as an opportunity to ask whether history can repeat itself and what they can learn from it for present times.
