This is what Miguel added: "I know this is old but I saw your posting after identifying it by myself on Google earth. If you look to the left you'll see two other buildings that look like bombers. If you look to the right you'll see a playing field that looks like bomb craters. Maybe it was set up as a visual illusion to show the symbolism of destroying Germany and just leaving craters. I guess you can do a lot with these things."
P.S. From your comments, I understood you people dislike payed reviews, so I can give you my word there won't be any un-targeted reviews from now on! We only posted them 3 of them in this fiscal year, but I have to listen what my audience says, so I promise no more unrelated article advertising from now on! Hurray! Hope you appreciate what I decided...
It requires a lot of imagination to place a couple of "bombers" and "craters" in this picture. Come on!

This is pretty cool. It would be interesting to find out some background on the architect.
BTW - I don't think you should take a few negative comments about paid reviews as indicative of the general response - for something like that people are only generally likely to respond if they don't like it. I had no problem with it - you make it pretty obvious that it is a paid review, and nobody is forcing us to read it! Although I would like to see more reviews of products more related to illusions - ie. graphical software or equipment? Maybe also reviews of books on illusions or drawing techniques. - Tim
I've seen this nazi building long ago, but didn't notice the bombers back then. It makes this famous google earth picture even more amazing. Not that impressed by the bomb craters though, just because they're really small I guess. But eh, that's still pretty cool.
Cool. 2 cool things. 1. Mighty Optical illusions is the second thing on Google under "optical illusions" now. 2. You can't put comments on some of the posts from this weak.

>.< first comment lol ...i dont really like those kind of ilussions ther suk
First of . . . Hoshit I see what the illusion is, and thats kinda creepy (me being from Germany and all . . . even though I do not approve of what the Nazi's did . . . and never will)
Second, I think adding the add RIGHT under the post makes the Google thingy not work right, as this is the first illusion of the day I haven't been able to see on my google page. Just thought I'd let ya know.

i though this site was mighty optical illusions This isnt an illusion GOODBYE
hmmm, Not so much an illusion, but a building shaped like a swastika. Thats not an illusion. Oh, and about your paid adverising bit, at least you tried, but I really don't see why people are knocking it. There is advertising plastered all over this website, doesnt anyone complain about that? Whats the difference if it is in google ads, advertising buttons, or posted in a blog. I suppose you maintain this site, so why aren't you allowed to take in all of it's glory. If you were not here, we whould not have such fine illusions...Aside from the building shaped like a swastika! So, this time, I am on your side.

Before the Nazis perverted the Svastika symbol, it was (is) an auspicious Sanskrit symbol. The meaning is the seat of the soul or an abode for the individual divine. I think we need to take back the symbol's original meaning.

Thats cool! If you look to the left of the playing field, it looks like those buildings are the simbol of the axis.

the swastik sign actually means good luck or something.
if you ask me, we don't need to stop using it just because hitler used it. it's like not using smiley face anymore because some dud you don't like smiled once. that's my opinion.
by the way, great site!

Hey, I just had a thought - your google and other websites that admit this kind of content of your personalised homepage (or whatever) - to my knowledge isn't that iillegal in Germany? And parts of Europe? Are you trying to get your German fans into trouble? (I'm not complaining - I'm just curious to know what you think!)...
Its just that some people might think Google and Illusions are endorsing the symbol...

Here is more on the origins of the swastika. Interesting it was alive and well in Germany for positive reasons before the Nazis coopted it for their evil empire.
To all you people asking where it is.... DUH - the coords are written in the bottom left corner.

Oh, and please try to keep this site to illusions. We already have googlesightseeing.com for this kind of thing.

This is an odd building, but to add to the strangeness, its in san diego bay in the US Naval Amphibious base named Coronado. Its supposed to just be an oversight.
being jewish, it offends me that people are booing this illusion. i personally think it's an awesome memorial to build, because it symbolizes the defeat.
people need to be careful about what they say on here, cause it can end up hurting others.
Did anyone else actually look this up on Google Earth? I did, and from looking at the surrounding area it appears to be a millitary base in San Diego Bay
I don't know why everyone is getting so mad about this not being first because who cares? its a real cool picture and second because it is an illusion, its some building that look like bomber planes and a swastika.

This is cool...I didn't see the bombers at first, but after I knew what they were supposed to be (duh) I could tell.
Yes, I saw the planes and the field. It's quite nice idea. Although a bit confusing.

Thats the same place as in the other mysterious swastika building, you can see the craters in the field and the corner of the bomber buildings.
OMG I live by there
