Historical Context of Nuremberg WWII
During World War II, Nuremberg played a significant role as a pivotal location in the historical events that unfolded during the war. Its impact on the overall course of the conflict was profound. As a key city in Nazi Germany, Nuremberg hosted the infamous Nuremberg Rallies, where Hitler delivered his powerful speeches to massive crowds.
The significance of these events reverberated not only through the war but also in shaping post-war judgments and policies. Nuremberg’s strategic location and symbolic importance made it a target for Allied bombings, resulting in widespread destruction. The scars of war left a lasting imprint on the city, influencing its trajectory in the years to come.
Influence of WWII on Adidas/Puma
The historical backdrop of World War II in Nuremberg not only left a profound impact on the city itself but also played a significant role in shaping the origins and trajectory of Adidas and Puma.
During WWII, both Adidas and Puma factories were involved in producing gear for the war effort. After the war, the Dassler brothers who founded Adidas and Puma had a falling out, leading to the split of the companies and the intense rivalry that followed.
This split further fueled the brand evolution of both Adidas and Puma, driving them to innovate and compete fiercely in the sports industry. The influence of WWII on Adidas and Puma remains evident in their histories, shaping the way both brands developed and grew post-war.
