Thus, buildings like the Congress Hall in Nuremberg and the Volkshalle in Berlin, inspired by the Colosseum and the Pantheon, respectively, were not merely symbols of tradition, order and reliability, but signaled a far more sinister intention on the part of the autocrat who commissioned them: a return to Roman ethics, which recognized the natural right of a conqueror to enslave conquered peoples in the most literal sense of the word, a right already made manifest even within the sphere of architecture by the creation of concentration camps, whose inmates were forced to quarry the stone for the Reich's buildings.

It is a vertical cylinder constructed out of 12, 650 tons of concrete, standing 18 meters tall and was constructed on the site of a proposed triumphal arch that would be placed on the large avenue leading up to the Volkshalle.

The neoclassical style was primarily used for urban state buildings or party buildings such as the Zeppelin Field in Nuremberg, the planned Volkshalle for Berlin and the Dietrich Eckart Stage in Berlin.

On the north side of the junction a massive forum of about 350, 000 square metres was planned, around which were to be situated buildings of the greatest political and physical dimensions: a vast domed Volkshalle on the north side, Hitler's vast new palace and chancellery on the west side and part of the south side, and on the east side the new High Command of the German armed forces and the now-dwarfed pre-Nazi Reichstag.

Thus, the huge Volkshalle was to dominate Berlin's new forum and north-south axis, whereas at EUR the new Church of the Saints Paul and Peter dominated the new town's decumanus.

Thus, this building, like the Volkshalle in Berlin foreshadowed Hitler's craving for world domination long before this aim was put into words.

Just as Augustus's house on the Palatine was connected to the temple of Apollo, so Hitler's palace was to have been connected by a cryptoporticus to the Volkshalle, which filled the entire north side of the forum.

The large niche ( 50 metres high by 28 metres wide ) at the north end of the Volkshalle was to be surfaced with gold mosaic and to enclose an eagle high, beneath which was situated Hitler's tribunal.

Despite the evidence these overt and largely traditional imperialistic symbols of domination over urbs and orbis, Giesler says that Speer was wrong to represent the Volkshalle as a symbol of World Domination ().

Although the Volkshalle was never built, critics claimed it might have severe architectural problems, such as acoustics that would ( depending on the critic ) either make it impossible to hear a speaker, or would magnify the speaker's voice to such a volume that it might cause deafness.

On the site of today's Parliamentary offices ( Paul-Löbe-Haus ) adjacent to the Reichstag, Speer planned to construct the Volkshalle ( The People's Hall ), 250 m high, seven times higher than St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, and with an enormous copper dome.

A model of Adolf Hitler's plan for Berlin formulated under the direction of Albert Speer, looking north toward the Volkshalle at the top of the frame.

On the north side of the plaza, straddling the River Spree, Speer planned to build the centrepiece of the new Berlin, an enormous domed building, the Volkshalle ( people's hall ), designed by Hitler himself.

Hitler later insisted on this detail when Hermann Giesler planned the Volkshalle for Weimar's forum.

Temples for martyrs were given pride of place, as at Königsplatz or, as at the Weimar forum, martyrs ' crypts at the entrance of the Volkshalle were given prominence.

Its dome is the second largest in Rome after that of St. Peter's Basilica, whereas the dome of Saint Peter's would have fitted through the oculus in the dome of the Berlin Volkshalle.

* Volkshalle -- a gigantic domed building proposed to be constructed in Berlin as part of Albert Speer's Welthauptstadt Germania, from which Hitler planned to issue his Imperial decrees to Occupied Europe before crowds of up to 180, 000 people.

For a location comparison, the Brandenburg Gate would have been located at the right on the street in front of the Volkshalle.

But Hitler's interest in and admiration for the Pantheon predated this visit, since his sketch of the Volkshalle dates from about 1925.

The resemblance of the Volkshalle to the Pantheon is far more obvious when their interiors are compared.

The design and size of the external decoration of this Volkshalle, are all exceptional and call for explanations that do not apply to community halls planned for Nazi fora in other German cities.

Kitzingen's revival is credited to the wisdom of Bishop Johann Philip von Schoenborn of Würzburg, whose Edict of Toleration in 1650 encouraged the return of the expelled Protestants.

Prussia abolished serfdom with the " October Edict " of 1807, which upgraded the personal legal status of the peasantry and gave them ownership of half or two thirds of the lands they were working.

Although strict enforcement of the revocation was relaxed during the reign of Louis XV, it was not until 102 years later, in 1787, when Louis XVI signed the Edict of Versailles – known as the Edict of Tolerance – that civil status and rights to form congregations by Protestants were restored.

The Edict is very specific about the status of non-Muslims, making it possible " to see it as the outcome of a period of religious restlessness that followed the Edict of 1839.

After the Edict of Milan granted Christianity legal status, Emperor Constantine the Great enriched the Church of Rome with large buildings such as the Lateran Basilica and Lateran Palace and the Basilica of Saint Peter, and with endowments.

However, that Edict seemed to provide for a return to the status quo ante in which the States General would not be permanently in session.

The history of Potsdamer Platz can probably be traced back to 29 October 1685, when the Tolerance Edict of Potsdam was signed, whereby Frederick William, Elector of Brandenburg-Prussia from 1640 to 1688, allowed large numbers of religious refugees, including Jews from Austria and Huguenots expelled from France, to settle on his territory.

A key motivation behind the Edict was so the Elector could encourage the rapid repopulation, restabilising and economic recovery of his kingdom, following the ravages of the Thirty Years ' War ( 1618 – 48 ).

Nearly 50, 000 Huguenots established themselves in Germany, 20, 000 of which were welcomed in Brandenburg-Prussia, where they were granted special privileges ( Edict of Potsdam ) by Frederick William, Elector of Brandenburg and Duke of Prussia.

The Elector of Brandenburg answered the revocation of the Edict of Nantes by promulgating the Edict of Potsdam, and invited the fleeing Huguenots to Brandenburg.

Frederick William, known as " The Great Elector ", opened Brandenburg-Prussia to large-scale immigration (" Peuplierung ") of mostly Protestant refugees from all across Europe (" Exulanten "), most notably Huguenot immigration following the Edict of Potsdam.

Some rulers, such as Frederick Wilhelm, Duke of Prussia and Elector of Brandenburg, who issued the Edict of Potsdam in late October 1685, encouraged the Protestants to seek refuge in their nations.

* 1784 – Tolerance Edict of Elector Clemens Wenceslaus of Saxony-toleration of Protestants in the Electorate of Trier.

It was founded in 1689 by Elector Frederick III of Brandenburg for the children of the Huguenot families who had settled in Brandenburg-Prussia by his invitation, being persecuted for their Protestant beliefs in the Catholic Kingdom of France after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes by King Louis XIV in October 1685.
