Nazi Slogans or Graffiti at the end of the War
When I was doing photo's for my website http://www.nowstalgia.eu I was visiting VettWeiB in Germany finding below image with the lyrics Sieg oder Chaos. Unfortunately I could not find the exact location, but when I was there i found by coincidence the below image made by me with the lyrics Sieg oder Siberien on a house still bearly visible. Are there any other other examples of visible Nazi Lyrics still there?
And also please post other old examples in this thread about nazi lyrics.

Re: Nazi Lyrics at the end of the war
Cor, that's amazing that you found remnants of the original "Sieg oder Sibirien" slogan! (In English, we would call these things "slogans" or "graffiti")
The only things like this that I have seen surviving as originals are some "Luftschutz" and "LSR" (Luftschutzraum) markings on old brick buildings.
Here are some more period photos, all from the U.S. Army Signal Corps Collection in the U.S. National Archives.

Thanks Synch for your kind post and interest in my website.Synch wrote:Thank you Geoff for sharing those images and a big thank you to Cor, I have just spent my afternoon reading your website. Well done.
One of the photo's posted by Geoff was taken in Vettweiss. According to the then photo. I was there and i could not find a place which look similar to the place, only the one posted below. I'm convinced it's not the real location but maybe still nice to see the merge. Maybe the location is in the nearby village of Gladbach. The wall at the church there looks very similar.
Any other possibilities? or people from that region that might know more?
After i'm back from holiday i will try to post more of these interesting nazi slogan photo's.

Typisch Deutsch: even the graffiti is done neatly.

Great images guys, I am scouring my archive now
A few years ago I would make scale model buildings for wargames and paint the slogans on the items to make them more realistic

After the corona pandemic i was finally able to go back to Vettweiss to make this comparison of the Sieg oder Chaos photo. On my website nowstalgia.eu you can see how the location is today.
