OK! I meant Nuremberg! Doesn't matter, it's off now! Pity, I was looking forward to re-creating the best bits of 'Triumph des Willens' on the Zeppelinfeld, see how far i got before I was either arrested or adored...

It's just that burg means castle and berg means mountain, so it is a significant difference.
