National Gothic
National Gothic is a term that describes a style of architecture, art, and aesthetics primarily associated with Nazi Germany during the 1930s and 1940s. It seeks to evoke the grandeur and spiritual strength of medieval Gothic architecture, combined with nationalistic themes. This style was used in propaganda and public buildings to promote a sense of historic continuity, power, and cultural identity aligned with Nazi ideology. While visually reminiscent of medieval Gothic, it often involves simplified, monumental forms designed to inspire loyalty and a collective sense of pride among Germans.
