Bamberg party conference of the Nazi Party Congress, convened on the initiative of Hitler February 14, 1926 in Bamberg, Bavaria, in order to develop a program of the Nazi Party. The conference was attended by all the local party leaders. It happened divergence of views between the Nazi leaders of northern and southern regions of Germany, and Hitler was forced to overcome the disagreements that. He deliberately chose to hold the convention weekday, in the hope that the Northerners would be difficult to leave from work. In the vast majority of representatives of southern Germany, on behalf of northerners could speak only Gregor Strasser and Dr. Joseph Goebbels. Strasser represented urban socialist revolutionary wing of the party, while the Southerner Gottfried Feder - rural racist populist ideas. Hitler had to carefully maneuver between these two irreconcilable groups, not to allow their party chicks turn in the direction of "undiluted socialist principles".

The peak of controversy at the conference was the issue of expropriation of royal houses. Hitler made a two-hour speech, explaining to delegates why they should not vote for the expropriation. National Socialism, he said, should help the communist movement.

Expropriation does not accelerate the removal of Wittelsbach and other Germanic dynasties in the dustbin of history. Goebbels, initially supported the position Strasser, was able to predict the consequences and quietly withdrew to the positions of Hitler. As a reward he received the post of Gauleiter of Berlin, which was the beginning of his successful career in the party. The party split between the nationalists and socialists, was finally resolved during the "blood purge" 1934 in favor of the former.
