Took me two 30-mile cycle trips to get this right of the atrium of Munich University showing the May 10, 1933 deomonstration after which professors and students marched by torchlight to burn books on Konigsplatz:
Can anyone identify these symbols?
Came across these reliefs by accident when cycling around Munich. The owl in the centre is dated 1934- any ideas?
