Napola Potsdam: Erziehung im Nationalsozialismus

Potsdam: Brandenburgische Landeszentrale für politische Bildung, 2025

This richly-illustrated companion volume to an exhibition on the Napola in Potsdam (current site of the Brandenburg Federal State Government) places this specific Nazi elite school’s history both within the Napola system, and within the broader context of Nazi society.

Alongside two interpretative essays, the volume tells the stories of staff and pupils, charting the ways in which they navigated the National Socialist regime. It also illuminates the school’s daily life and institutional structure.
