The Feldherrnhalle (Field Marshall's Hall) is a monumental loggia on the Odeonsplatz in Munich, Germany. Modeled after the Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence, it was commissioned in 1841 by King Ludwig I of Bavaria to honor the tradition of his army. In 1923 it was the site of the brief battle that ended Hitler's Beer Hall Putsch. During the Nazi era it served as a sacred site commemorating the 16 Nazi SA 'martyrs' who died in the failed putsch. ==Structure== The Feldherrnhalle was built between 1841 and 1844 at the southern end of Munich's Ludwigstrasse next to the Palais Preysing and east of the Hofgarten. Previously the Gothic ''Schwabinger Tor'' (gate) occupied that place. Friedrich von Gärtner built the Feldherrnhalle〔Friedrich von Gärtner, New International Encyclopedia〕 at the behest of King Ludwig I of Bavaria after the example of the Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence. The Feldherrnhalle was a symbol of the honours of the Bavarian Army, represented by statues of two military leaders Johann Tilly and Karl Philipp von Wrede. The first led Bavarians in the Thirty Years War; the second led the fight against Napoleon.〔Gavriel D. Rosenfeld, ''Architecture, Monuments, and the Legacy of the Third Reich'', University of California Press, April 2000, pp.110-20.〕 The statues were created by Ludwig Schwanthaler.〔Joanna Egert-Romanowskiej et al, ''DK Eyewitness Travel Guide: Germany: Germany'', p.218.〕 A sculptural group by Ferdinand von Miller was added to the centre of the monument in 1882, after the Franco-Prussian War, representing the victory over the French and the unification of Germany. The lions are a work of Wilhelm von Rümann, added in 1906 in imitation of the Medici lions of the Loggia dei Lanzi. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Feldherrnhalle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
