High-Ranking officials of the Third Reich
Chief Nazi Architect of Racial Ideology: Alfred Rosenberg
20m
From the early 1920s to the fall of the Third Reich, Alfred Rosenberg shaped the Nazi worldview.
As the Party’s chief ideologue and Minister for the Occupied Eastern Territories, he transformed antisemitic fantasy into state doctrine — justifying conquest, plunder, and extermination.
His writings fed the myth of Aryan supremacy and “Judeo-Bolshevism,” while his ministry helped organize mass murder across Eastern Europe.
At Nuremberg, the man who gave Nazism its “spiritual foundation” stood accused of crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.
He showed no remorse — and met his end on the gallows in October 1946.
