Description

US Military Parade Munich 1945; Photo; Licensed item; Original: 5740×4315; Photographer: Unknown;a0 Licensable; Rights: 9 Bleek/zb Media. The photo shows a US military parade on Königsplatz in Munich in June 1945, shortly after the end of World War II.
US soldiers march in orderly rows across Königsplatz, accompanied by military vehicles such as jeeps and tanks.
The neoclassical buildings of Königsplatz, such as the Glyptothek and the Propylaea, are visible with war damage.
The parade symbolizes the Allied takeover in Munich, which previously played a central role in the Nazi regime as the “Capital of the Movement.”
A mix of victory celebration and display of power – the US troops demonstrate their presence in the occupied city at the square where the Nazis previously held their great rallies.
The photo documents the transformation of Munich from a Nazi stronghold to a city controlled by the Americans and represents the beginning of the occupation period and the reconstruction.
