Numinous »Wewelsburg«-Acropolis was usurped by Heinrich Himmler for esoteric SS-ordinances
Two years ago when I was uttering something in the center point of the cavern (‘Gruft’) beneath the North Tower the echo was so strangely reverberating to me that I felt like being the ΓΝΩΘΙ ΣΑΥΤΟΝ of the hunch that rose in me: Was once a hyperborean Pythia foretelling from here?
The Rotunda of the North-Tower at Wewelsburg-fortress reminds many a man of the infamous ‚fools-tower‘ in Vienna.
"After a further visit in April, the castle was officially taken over by the SS in August 1934. The Wewelsburg began its new career as a museum and SS officers’ college for ideological education within the Race and Settlement Main Office, but was then placed under the direct control of the Reichsführer-SS Personal Staff in February 1935. This transfer reflected the increasing importance of the castle to Heinrich Himmler and the germination of his plans for an SS order-castle, comparable to the Marienburg of the medieval Teutonic Knights. The impetus for this changing conception of the Wewelsburg came almost certainly from Weisthor, who had accompanied Himmler on his visits to the castle. Weisthor predicted that the castle was destined to become a magical German strongpoint in a future conflict between Europe and Asia. This idea was based on an old Westphalian legend, which had found romantic expression in a nineteenth-century poem." This described an old shepherd’s vision of a ‘Battle at the Birchtree’ in which an enormous army from the East would be finally beaten by the West. Weisthor brought this legend to Himmler’s notice, claiming that the Wewelsburg was the ‘bastion’ against which this ‘new Hun invasion’ would be broken in fulfilment of the old prophecy.

“Secret Aryan Cults …” by Nicolas Goodrick-Clarke
… The development of the Wewelsburg near Paderborn as the SS order-castle and ceremonial centre must represent Weisthor’s most spectacular contribution to the Third Reich. During the Nazi electoral campaign of January 1933 Himmler travelled through Westphalia, making his first acquaintance with ‘the land of Hermann and Widukind’. The mythical atmosphere of the Teutoburger Forest, a drive up to the Hermannsdenkmal in fog, and the romantic Grevenburg castle, where the Führer’s party stayed overnight, impressed Himmler deeply and made him think of acquiring a castle in this area for SS purposes. 24
After two other castles had been considered in the course of the year, Himmler viewed the Wewelsburg with members of his Personal Staff on 3 November 1933 and made his choice that very evening. After a further visit in April, the castle was officially taken over by the SS in August 1934. The Wewelsburg began its new career as a museum and SS officers’ college for ideological education within the Race and Settlement Main Office, but was then placed under the direct control of the Reichsführer-SS Personal Staff in February 1935. This transfer reflected the increasing importance of the castle to Himmler and the germination of his plans for an SS order-castle, comparable to the Marienburg of the medieval Teutonic Knights. The impetus for this changing conception of the Wewelsburg came almost certainly from Weisthor, who had accompanied Himmler on his visits to the castle. 25 Weisthor predicted that the castle was destined to become a magical German strongpoint in a future conflict between Europe and Asia. This idea was based on an old Westphalian legend, which had found romantic expression in a nineteenth-century poem. 26 This described an old shepherd’s vision of a ‘Battle at the Birchtree’ in which an enormous army from the East would be finally beaten by the West. Weisthor brought this legend to Himmler’s notice, claiming that the Wewelsburg was the ‘bastion’ against which this ‘new Hun invasion’ would be broken in fulfilment of the old prophecy. Karl Wolff, Chief Adjutant of the Personal Staff, recalled that Himmler was very moved by Weisthor’s idea, which squared with his own notion of the SS’s future role in the defence of Europe in a coming East-West confrontation which he expected in one to two hundred years’ time. 27
While it cannot be definitely proved that Weisthor influenced the choice of the Wewelsburg in late 1933, his interpretation of the legend and other discussions with Himmler contributed importantly to the new conception of the Wewelsburg as an SS order-castle from 1935 onwards.
Weisthor also had an important influence on the development of SS ritual. In the course of his visits to the Wewelsburg, he established a warm friendship with the castle commandant, Manfred von Knobelsdorff. Inspired by their exchanges on religion and traditions, Knobelsdorff enthusiastically sought to revive the Irminist faith through various rituals held at the castle. These included pagan wedding ceremonies for SS officers and their brides, at which Weisthor officiated with an ivory-handled stick bound with blue ribbon and carved with runes, and the annual spring, harvest and solstice festivals for both the SS garrison and the villagers. 28 Knobelsdorff also closed his letters to Weisthor with the expression ‘in Irminist loyalty’ as a token of his interest in the old religion. 29 Himmler also commissioned Weisthor with the design of the SS Totenkopfring, a tangible symbol of membership in an order demanding complete obedience and loyalty. The ring was bestowed by Himmler personally and accompanied by a certificate describing its ornament and meaning. The ornament comprised a death’s head, the double sigrune, a swastika, a hagall rune, and the rune group SS which indicated the traditions of Weisthor. 30 The ring was moreover ritually linked with the Wewelsburg: in 1938 Himmler declared that the rings of all dead SS men and officers were to be returned for safekeeping in a chest at the castle as a symbolic expression of their enduring community in the order. 31 Here again, symbols and rituals demonstrate Weisthor’s contribution to the ceremonial and pseudo-religion of the SS.
Himmler’s ultimate plans for the Wewelsburg reflect its cult importance in the SS. In the large domed circular room of the massive enlarged north tower were to hang the coats-of-arms devised for dead SS-Gruppenfuhrer; in the vault or SS-Obergruppenfuhrer hall below unspecified ceremonies were envisaged. In the wings of the castle the studyrooms had already been named and furnished after figures representing a ‘nordic mythology’ such as Widukind, King Heinrich, Henry the Lion, King Arthur and the Grail. Area plans dating from between 1940 and 1942 provided for the relocation of the village some distance away and the building of an enormous architectural complex consisting of halls, galleries, towers, turrets, and curtain walls arranged in a semi-circular form on the hillside around the original medieval castle. Photographs of models showing the project, due for completion in the 1960s, suggest that Himmler dreamed of creating an SS vatican on an enormous scale at the centre of a millenarian Greater Germanic Reich. 32 It also seems likely that this visionary city would have witnessed the celebration of ancient religion and traditions initially revealed by Weisthor in the 1930s.
By spring 1935 Weisthor had moved from Munich to Berlin, where he continued his work in the Chief Adjutant’s office of the ReichsführerSS Personal Staff. This transfer to the top entourage indicates how highly Himmler valued Weisthor and their discussions together.
According to eye witnesses, he was now busier than ever, surrounded by adjutants, orderlies, and the general hustle and bustle of government at the Reich capital. An official car collected Weisthor daily from his private villa in exclusive Grunewald, often before he had finished his breakfast, in order that the elderly officer could meet a demanding schedule of meetings, correspondence, and travel. Frequent social visitors to the villa at Kaspar Theyss Strasse 33 included Heinrich Himmler, Joachim von Leers, Edmund Kiss, Otto Rahn, Richard Anders, and Friedrich Schiller. 33 Besides his involvement with the Wewelsburg and his land surveys in the Black Forest and elsewhere, Weisthor continued to produce examples of his family traditions such as the Halgarita mottoes, Germanic mantras designed to stimulate ancestral memory, a Gotos calendar with verse for 1937, and the design for the SS Totenkopfring. An interesting political example of his work is a blueprint for the reestablishment of the Irminist religion in Germany which detailed provisions for restrictions on the priesthood,the nationalization of all ecclesiastical property, and the restoration and conservation of ancient monuments.34 In September 1936 he was promoted SSBrigadeführer(brigadier) in the Reichsführer-SS Personal Staff.

Mystery & History surrounding the location Wewelsburg
⚫ "The impetus for this changing conception of the Wewelsburg came almost certainly from Weisthor, who had accompanied Himmler on his visits to the castle. 25 Weisthor predicted that the castle was destined to become a magical German strongpoint in a future conflict between Europe and Asia. This idea was based on an old Westphalian legend, which had found romantic expression in a nineteenth-century poem."
⚫ 11,500 rings after the Second World War deponed near Wewelsburg Castle The ring was initially presented to senior officers of the Old Guard (of which there were fewer than 5,000) who had displayed extraordinary valor and leadership skill in battle. An additional requirement was a clean disciplinary record, and a subsequent blemish on it would require the wearer to return the ring. By 1939, disciplinary issues aside, it was available to any officer with 3 years service in the SS, and in World War II virtually the entire SS leadership, including the Waffen-SS and Gestapo, had the ring. On 17 October 1944 production of the rings by Gahr & Co. of Munich was cancelled due to the increasing economic stresses of the final stages of the war. The rings were cast using the lost-wax process, with the recipient’s name, the award date, and Himmler’s signature engraved on the interior of each ring.
In 1938 Himmler ordered the return of all rings of dead SS-men and officers to be stored in a chest in Wewelsburg Castle. This was to symbolize the ongoing membership of the deceased in the SS-order. The whereabouts of the approximately 11,500 rings after the Second World War is unclear, but it has been suggested that they were entombed in a local mountain by blasting closed the entrance to a cave.

⚫ La componente esoterica del nazismo Fenomeni complessi come il movimento nazista ed il Reich hitleriano sono stati analizzati da ogni angolatura, ma è interessante riprendere un aspetto forse meno approfondito del nazional-socialismo, che andò oltre quelli che erano gli interessi volti a creare un grande impero millenario e che assunse contorni occulti, macabri, circondati da un alone di mistero, tali da alimentare, ancora di più, i lati oscuri del già tetro mondo della svastica.

Struggle for the correct title-version
v14012015: Antediluvian Acropolis with the North-Tower of the (in)famous, germanic fortress “Wewelsburg”
v15012015: Numinous Fortress Wewelsburg: Snowy North-Tower-Rotunda upon antediluvian Acropolis once usurped by Himmlers esoteric SS-Cult
numinous: having a strong religious or spiritual quality; indicating or suggesting the presence of a divinity. – "the strange, numinous beauty of this ancient landmark"
Die Akropolis ist im ursprünglichen Sinn der zu einer Stadt gehörige Burgberg beziehungsweise die Wehranlage, die zumeist auf der höchsten Erhebung nahe der Stadt erbaut wurde.
Zu einer antiken griechischen Stadt gehörte grundsätzlich immer eine Akropolis – auch wenn einige aufgrund flachen Geländes diese Bezeichnung nicht recht zu verdienen scheinen.
Aus Verteidigungsgründen wählten die frühen Siedler einer Stadt Erhöhungen und Hügel aus, wenn möglich mit steilen Hängen. Die Akropolis entsprach einer Zitadelle, jedoch entwickelte sie sich im Laufe der Geschichte von einer Wehranlage auf dem Burgberg auch zum Kultplatz mit den wichtigsten Heiligtümern. Die frühen Siedlungen entwickelten sich vielerorts zu den Zentren großer Städte, die sich über die angrenzenden Täler ausbreiteten.
Die bekannteste Akropolis befindet sich in Athen, siehe Akropolis (Athen). Viele ihrer Bauten wurden aus pentelischem Marmor errichtet.
An acropolis (ἀκρόπολις; from akros or akron, "highest", "topmost", "outermost" and polis, "city"; plural in English: acropoles, acropoleis or acropolises) is a settlement, especially a citadel, built upon an area of elevated ground—frequently a hill with precipitous sides, chosen for purposes of defense. In many parts of the world, acropoleis became the nuclei of large cities of classical antiquity, such as ancient Rome, which in more recent times grew up on the surrounding lower ground, such as modern Rome.
The word acropolis literally means in Greek "upper city," and though associated primarily with the Greek cities Athens, Argos, Thebes, and Corinth (with its Acrocorinth), may be applied generically to all such citadels, including Rome, Jerusalem, Celtic Bratislava, many in Asia Minor, or even Castle Rock in Edinburgh. An example in Ireland is the Rock of Cashel. Acropolis is also the term used by archaeologists and historians to the urban Castro culture settlements located in Northwestern Iberian hilltops.
The most famous example is the Acropolis of Athens, which, by reason of its historical associations and the several famous buildings erected upon it (most notably the Parthenon), is known without qualification as the Acropolis. Although originating in the mainland of Greece, use of the acropolis model quickly spread to Greek colonies such as the Dorian Lato on Crete during the Archaic Period.
Because of its classical Hellenistic style, the ruins of Mission San Juan Capistrano’s Great Stone Church in California, United States has been called the "American Acropolis".
Other parts of the world developed other names for the high citadel or alcázar, which often reinforced a naturally strong site. In Central Italy, many small rural communes still cluster at the base of a fortified habitation known as La Rocca of the commune.
The term acropolis is also used to describe the central complex of overlapping structures, such as plazas and pyramids, in many Maya cities, including Tikal and Copán.
———————————–
Die SS entwickelte sich unter ihrem "Reichsführer" Heinrich Himmler zu einer der mächtigsten Organisationen im "Dritten Reich". Sie verstand sich als politische und rassische Elite. Die Umsetzung dieses Anspruchs und ihrer radikalen Ideologie brachte Millionen von Menschen den Tod.
Ab 1933 plante der "Reichsführer SS", Heinrich Himmler, ein ideologisches Zentrum für seine Schutzstaffel in der Wewelsburg einzurichten. Zunächst als Schulungsstätte für SS-Offiziere gedacht, wurden im Verlaufe der 1930er Jahre Maßnahmen ergriffen, welche die Wewelsburg mehr und mehr in eine abgeschottete, zentrale Versammlungsstätte für die höchsten SS-Offiziere umformen sollten. Der Putz wurde abgeschlagen und der Graben vertieft, damit das Schloss trutziger, "burgenähnlicher" wirkte. Nordische Symbole und Ornamentik prägten bald die Innenräume der Wewelsburg.
Himmler verweilte immer wieder – alleine oder mit Gästen – in Wewelsburg.
Er kündigte an, jährliche Gruppenführertreffen – also Zusammenkünfte der ranghöchsten SS-Offiziere – auf der Wewelsburg abhalten zu wollen. Ebenso sollten hier Vereidigungsfeiern stattfinden. Noch gegen Kriegsende ordnete Himmler an, die Wewelsburg solle das „Reichshaus der SS-Gruppenführer“ werden.
Ort der Selbstvergewisserung
Die Stellung der Wewelsburg als ideologischer Versammlungsstätte wird veranschaulicht durch das Gruppenführertreffen vom 12. bis 15. Juni 1941.
Eine gute Woche vor Beginn des Russlandfeldzuges versammelte Heinrich Himmler hier die höchsten SS-Offiziere, die an der Planung des SS-Einsatzes beim Überfall auf die Sowjetunion beteiligt waren. Anwesend waren unter anderen Reinhard Heydrich (Chef des Reichssicherheits-Hauptamts), Kurt Daluege (Chef der Ordnungspolizei) und Karl Wolff (Chef des Persönlichen Stabes von Himmler). Ebenfalls anwesend waren die für den Einsatz in der Sowjetunion vorgesehenen Friedrich Jeckeln, Erich von dem Bach-Zelewski und Adolf Prützmann sowie weitere zuständige SS-Offiziere.
Konkrete Entscheidungen wurden nicht mehr getroffen, Detailabsprachen fanden nicht mehr statt. Während der Besprechungen ging bereits der konkrete Angriffsbeginn aus Berlin ein. Vielmehr wurde das Treffen noch einmal genutzt, um sich weltanschaulich auf den "Vernichtungskampf" einzustimmen und sich in der weltanschaulich anheimelnden Atmosphäre zu sammeln. Im Nürnberger Hauptkriegsverbrecherprozess nach dem Krieg erinnerte sich Bach-Zelewski, Himmler habe in einer Rede bei dem Gruppenführertreffen auf der Wewelsburg den Zweck des Russlandfeldzuges mit der "Dezimierung der slawischen Rasse um dreißig Millionen" angegeben.
Ort des Leidens
Die Wewelsburg wurde in Verbindung mit ihrer geplanten Verwendung als zentraler SS-Versammlungs- und Ideologiestätte zum Gegenstand weitreichender architektonischer Pläne. Je größer die Macht der SS im Deutschen Reich wurde, umso monumentaler wurden die Bau-Absichten. Eine gigantische Burganlage sollte in Wewelsburg entstehen, das "Reichshaus der SS-Gruppenführer", entworfen vom Münsteraner Architekten Hermann Bartels in enger Absprache mit Himmler. Umgesetzt werden sollten diese Pläne von Häftlingen eines extra für die Bauvorhaben eingerichteten Konzentrationslagers in Wewelsburg. Dieses rangierte ab 1941 als eigenständiges Hauptlager auf einer organisatorischen Stufe mit Lagern wie Buchenwald, Sachsenhausen oder Dachau.
Die Pläne für die Burganlage sahen einen mehrere hundert Meter weiten Radius aus Gebäuden und Wällen vor. Mittelpunkt dieses Dreiviertelkreises sollte der Nordturm der Wewelsburg sein. Über 3.900 Häftlinge des KZ Niederhagen-Wewelsburg wurden zur Umsetzung dieser und weiterer Bauvorhaben zur Arbeit gezwungen. Mindestens 1.285 Menschen fanden vor Ort infolge der Arbeits- und Haftbedingungen sowie Misshandlungen und Willkür durch die SS-Wachmannschaften den Tod. Das Konzentrationslager in Wewelsburg war aber auch Exekutionsort der Gestapo. Mindestens 56 Menschen wurden auf dem Lagergelände oder einem unweit im Wald gelegenen Schießstand der SS ermordet.
Historischer Ort
Nach der Niederlage von Stalingrad wurde ein Baustopp verfügt und das Konzentrationslager bis auf ein 42 Mann starkes Restkommando aufgelöst. Obwohl Architekt weiterhin Baupläne entwarf, wurde die riesenhafte Burganlage folglich nicht fertig gestellt. 1945 befreiten amerikanische Soldaten das KZ-Restkommando, nachdem eine SS-Einheit noch erfolglos versucht hatte, die Wewelsburg dem Erdboden gleich zu machen.
Als bauliche Überreste der NS-Architektur sind heute zwei Räume im Nordturm der Wewelsburg erhalten geblieben, die auch Teil des Ausstellungsrundgangs sind: Die "Gruft" und der "Obergruppenführersaal". Über den geplanten Verwendungszweck liegen keine gesicherten Angaben vor. Ein Bodenornament aus dem "Obergruppenführersaal" ist seit den 1990er Jahren in rechten Kreisen auf der ganzen Welt zu einem Erkennungszeichen stilisiert worden.
