In 1933, it was made capital of the Nazi Gau of Bavarian Ostmark ("Bayerische Ostmark", in 1943 "Gau Bayreuth"). Nazi leaders often visited the Wagner festival and tried to turn Bayreuth into a Nazi model town. It was one of several places in which town planning was administered directly from Berlin, due to Hitler's special interest in the town and in the festival. Hitler loved the music of Richard Wagner, and he became a close friend of Winifred Wagner
