The Germans quickly took over the best hotels for their private use for headquarters and leisure. Here is Rue de Rivoli looking towards the Hotel Meurice . The French flag was banned from being flown
Every day the Germans would parade down the Champs Elysee
Gothic script German signposts were quickly put up starting the day the Germans arrived 14th June 1940, they were well prepared and immediately took over strategic points and buildings in Paris
A velo taxi, one of the more popular ways of getting around due to the petrol shortages France received ponly 10% of its pre war oil supplies and the Germans only issued permits for 3500 cars
The Germans were quick to remind Parisians of just who had won the war! The sign reads "Germany is victorious on every front" Parisians were constantly bombarded for 4 years with Nazi propaganda!
Which tourist doesn`t take the same photo? Hitler only visited Paris once in his life, 23rd June 1940 But made sure he did so with Albert Speer and Arno Breker, his favourite Architect and Sculptor!
