The Munich Beer Hall Putsch is Hitler's first attempt to take power, and occurs in November 1923. Hitlers SA and SS occupy the Burgerbraukeller, a huge beer hall, while the Bavarian President von Kahr and other officials have a mass meeting. Later, the Nazis are stopped by police while on a march and shot at. Several are killed, Hitler is slightly wounded and flees. The Putsch is stopped and Hitler is put on trial.
