| Summary |
This two-part documentary shows how Hitler planned to celebrate his victory in Europe by transforming his boyhood town of Linz, Austria into the cultural centrepiece of his new German empire: the 'Fuehrer City'. Throughout WWII, Nazi looting squads plundered many of the great artworks of Europe in preparation for the construction of a 'Fuehrer Museum' at war's end. The Louvre was left as an empty shell after a visit by the looting squad, with few reminders that it had housed one of the world's most important collections of artworks.
