The Nazi nurses of the Lebensborn project

Project Lebensborn .The single word already causes us concern if we delve into its German translation, "source of life." Its purpose? That of fulfilling one of the principles of the leader of the SS Heinrich Himmler, that was none other than the old idea of getting an authentic Aryan race with which to raise a new European civilization.He made a great investment in this racial and eugenics policy where he created the so-called maternity homes, where to take kidnapped children from Eastern Europe who complied with the physical canon of the Aryan ideal and where also take care of women who would give birth to creatures with them characteristics.

A typical horror project of any horror movie, which further increases our chills thinking it was something real.And that the nurses who worked there were witnesses and inducers, sometimes, of serious experiments that, even today, continue to come to light.

And, even more, to be part of the so-called Lebensborn project, which was nothing more than the aspiration to create an authentic Aryan race of men and women.
