In the noisy hall Hitler explained the 25 points of the partyprogram. On August 13, 1920 Hitler held a speech about the question: ‘Why are we anti-semites?’. On July 29, 1921, during a meeting of partymembers, Hitler became chairman of the Nazi-party but he made sure he had dictatorial power. Hitler held 20 speeches here in 1920, 18 in 1921 and 7 in 1922. After that the frequency of his speeches at the Hofbräuhaus went down. From 1933 untill 1941 Hitler was at the Hofbräuhaus every February the 24th, for a speech to remember the foundation of the NSDAP.
