Aimee Mann's European Blog- Stockholm

You are in the "China Theater" built by Albin Stark, a famous swedish architect who did a lot of work in China, big parliament buildings amongst other things. In the 1920s he came home and was asked to design a chinese theme theater. "The Nazis" did not build anything in Sweden, cause they never invaded Sweden. Cool story though, maybe it made the gig better (: But I needed to put the record straight in case Albin Starks relatives watch this and thinks their grandfather is "the nazis".

Yeah, Nazis never invaded Sweden - Swastika was a popular symbol in prewar Scandinavia - in Copenhagen the elephants at the Carlsberg brewery have huge swastikas carved in their sides.

Swastikas part of Buddhism? I haven't heard that one before, but I know Hitler got the idea from the Greeks. .

As far as I know, the Nazis never built anything in Sweden, Swastikas are part of Buddhism - it is one of Buddha's holy signs. It has occured in many cultures throughout history, and almost exclusively as a sign of friendship and peace.
