Munich Beer Hall Putsch

The Munich Beer Hall Putsch was a coup attempt in November 1923 in Munich, Germany, initiated by Hitler and right-wing forces including the Sturmabteilung (SA) of the Nazi Party (NSDAP) with the aim of overthrowing the German government (during the Weimar Republic era). Although it was ultimately suppressed by the government, this event led to Hitler's name becoming known throughout Germany.
