Location

What is the small village called that is georaphically attached to the Castle? Robert C Prenic 11:27, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Edited the article but this needs to be corrected with geographical reality. Robert C Prenic 16:31, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

--> Edited the article (location of the castle)- I hope the new version is clearer.

Members

This section needs expanding to properly define "members". The SS held membership. Were these people the twelve "knights" Himmler sought? The only record of a meeting of 12 there was in 1941, yet some of these people are listed as having been members in 1939. Not all of these members are obergruppenfuhrers either.

three years later, still no answer. I don't know what "members" means here. 71.171.103.178 (talk) 22:40, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

Groundwork planned circumspective of the burg under Himmler

The planned roadways around Wewelsburg remind me of the Greek lost final letter "Sampi" (c.f. Hitler's fetish for ancient high Greek culture), now consider that 'Sampi' is also known as "Di-sigma" (translated as: 'double S'). I also just think, though very far-fetchedly, of the non-IE/Germanic but Nordic in the sense of northern "Sampo" of the Finns. The Greek character name of Sampi itself means "like-Pi", Pi being the modern mathematical symbol for a circle, the character itself being a semi-circle and "like a circle", meta-reference. The double S itself in the rune formation as the SS used it, is a deconstructed (extrapolated from being superimposed and turned ninety degrees parallel) combination of two esses making the "Hakenkreuz"/swastika. (i.e. an es-zset, but shown in its constituent parts on the typeface used to accentuate the structure inherent as a hooked-cross/swastika when put to spatial permutation and rearrangement.). 67.171.248.22 (talk) 01:28, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Norbertusloch?

I've read of a hidden chamber named Norbertus/Norburtus' hole? Himmler had a personal weapons collection stowed there interned. 67.171.248.22 (talk) 01:34, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Why has it not been demolished ?

I understand that it is an historic building dating back some 720 years, however, given that such great lengths were taken after the end of WWII to make sure no monuments remained to the Nazi party, as rallying points for followers of the Nazi party, I fail to understand why such a powerful symbol of Nazism was allowed to remain (it was the seat of the most powerful branch of the Nazi party, the dreaded SS, architects of the mass murder of some 6 million Jews and 5 million various others) as a monument to the darkest period in human social history and a potential rallying point for groups such as Neo-Nazis. Perhaps someone can enlighten me as to why it is more important that this "Museum" to Heinrich Himmler, and Adolph Hitler's Nazi Party stands erect when those whom used it as the seat of their wretched regime laid so many people low ? 2603:6011:C80E:57E:E4B7:CA8F:A2C1:17D8 (talk) 08:48, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
