German town turns neo-Nazi march into an anti-Nazi charity fundraiser

Every year since the 1990s, extreme right-wing neo-Nazis from around Europe have made a sort-of pilgrimage to a small town in Germany.

Wunsiedel, near the Czech border, is the burial place of one of Hitler’s deputies Rudolph Hess and every November, for the last 25 years, neo-Nazi organisations visit and march through the town.

Previously, the residents of the town have protested and tried to stop the march but with no luck. So this year, the town - in association with the group Rechts gegen Rechts, or Rights versus Rights - has come up with an ingenious way of benefitting from the unwanted visitors.
