I'm curious about that - maybe a German can enlighten me?

Wiki says...

The German (and Austrian) postwar criminal code makes the public showing of the Hakenkreuz (the swastika) and other Nazi symbols illegal and punishable, except for scholarly reasons.

On the other hand I've seen these feature prominently in a number of high-profile German movies (notorious for their anti-war attitudes) - including Das Boot, Stalingrad and Der Untergang :hmm:
