The motif from the National Socialist propaganda shows the reception of the German Wehrmacht during their invasion of Heidelberg on March 8, 1936. The National Socialist reporting in March 1936 writes on the back of the picture: "The invasion of the troops in the old city of Heidelberg. On the afternoon of March 8, the German soldiers marched into the old city of Heidelberg again and were greeted jubilantly by the population. - Cheered by the population and especially by the youth, the troops hold their entry in the narrow streets of Heidelberg. U.B. shows a kettle drummer at the head of a mounted band, which naturally arouses the special interest of the boys, who have never seen German soldiers in their town."
