What Was the Hitler Youth? | Holocaust Explainer

Beginning in the early 1930s, through the end of the war in 1945, Nazis in Germany started indoctrinating millions of children with Nazi ideas through groups like the Hitler Youth.

The Hitler Youth was the Nazi-organized youth movement that was designed to shape the beliefs, actions, and thinking of young Germans, from ages 10 to 18.

The Nazi’s efforts to shape young people’s beliefs, actions, and lives, was so strong, that in the years after the war ended, young Germans were required to undergo training and education in democracy designed to counter the effects of twelve years of Nazi propaganda and indoctrination.
