Lonely Planet review for Neues Museum

The Neues Museum houses works of contemporary art in Weimar. The complex was built in 1863, as a gallery exclusively for works relating to Homer's Odyssey, but another odyssey occurred after it was used as a Halle der Volksgemeinschaft (literally 'people's solidarity hall') by the Nazis, and was then renamed Karl-Marx-Platz under the GDR.

    please correct your description !!!

    bauhaus1919 recommends this,

    ".....it was used as a Halle der Volksgemeinschaft (literally 'people's solidarity hall') by the Nazis, and was then renamed Karl-Marx-Platz under the GDR....."

    Your desription is just appalling, wrong and mixes up facts of a sensible topic of german history.

    Stop rewriting history as we already had this twice in Germany.

    Please make sure before you publish things like that you check at least official websites.
