Heinrich Himmler's Camelot: Pictorial/Documentary, The Wewelsburg, Ideological Center of the SS 1934-1945

Heinrich Himmler's Camelot documents the history of the former SS-School House Wewelsburg. The Wewelsburg Castle was chosen to be the training center for spiritual enlightenment of the Führer´s elite Praetorian Guard, the SS, and to be the "Center of the New World" for a Thousand-Year Reich.

Heinrich Himmler, appointed by Adolf Hitler as Reichsführer-SS, became responsible for researching and documenting centuries of Germanic culture, as well as defining the ideology of the Black Corps. This pictorial book also reveals captivating parallels between the phenomena of the Wewelsburg and the legendary King Arthur´s Camelot. Authors Stephen Cook and Stuart Russell have amassed this volume from years of research and expertise of factual history pertaining to Heinrich Himmler and the Wewelsburg Castle.

This sensational book explains the history of the Wewelsburg Castle from ancient times to present day, and roles of the SS, the Ahnenerbe, Heinrich Himmler, Karl Weisthor, and other personalities. It further explains the surrounding geographical area of Westphalia and its buried importance to the National Socialist philosophy as Himmler spearheaded a quest for Germany's forgotten ancestral heritage and documents of its natural Pagan culture suppressed by the Christian era. Heinrich Himmler's Camelot also gives a rare insight as a high-quality pictorial of the people, the architectural plans and castle rooms, including the North Tower's "Valhalla" and Hall of Pillars with the "Black Sun," as well as nearby Externsteine ("Rocks of the Sun") and Hermann's Monument (ca.
