Adolf Hitler in front of the town hall of Saarbrücken

A great parade was held in the afternoon of 1 March 1935 on the occasion of the reintegration of the Saar region into the German Reich. In addition to Adolf Hitler himself, the majority of high-ranking officials of the Nazi regime had travelled to Saarbrücken and celebrated this great electoral success. The delegation from Berlin was welcomed by a frenetic crowd of Saarbrücken's inhabitants in front of the St. Johann town hall.
