Hitler's Plans for Manchester: FREE Expert Guided Tour

Adolf Hitler and his stormtroopers never got to Manchester, though they planned to. Had Operation Sealion (Unternehmen Seelowe), “invasion of Britain”, been successful, the Nazis would have overrun Manchester by 1943, which is why they kept their bombers away from three city centre buildings. We name the three (on the tour).

Had the Nazis landed anywhere in Britain martial law would have been immediately deployed. One prominent Manchester building had already been chosen as the emergency regional government headquarters from where the Resistance would have been led.

On this unique eye-opening tour Ed Glinert, who has done more research into secret service spy stories linked to Manchester than any living being outside MI9, unveils the mad Fuhrer’s plans to seize the city that fortunately for all of us came to nought.
