POST-WW1 GERMAN FREIKORPS CHRISTMAS CRISIS AT BERLIN PALACE PHOTO POSTCARD RPPC. POST-WW1 GERMAN FREIKORPS CHRISTMAS CRISIS AT BERLIN PALACE. POST-WW1 GERMAN FREIKORPS CHRISTMAS CRISIS AT BERLIN PALACE AT THE. RARE HAND CHRISTMAS EVE DATED PHOTO POSTCARD IMAGE OF IMPERIAL GERMAN SOLDIERS AND BERLINERS GATHERING AT THE CASTLE GATE #4 IN WHICH GREAT DAMAGE INFLICTED. PHOTO DOCUMENTED AS IT HAPPENED ON DECEMBER 24,1918. The 1918 Christmas crisis German: Weihnachtskämpfe or. Christmas battles’ or’Christmas rebellion’ was a brief battle between the socialist revolutionary Volksmarinedivision and regular German army units on 24 December 1918 during the German Revolution of 1918-19. It took place at the Berlin Palace, the main residence of the House of Hohenzollern. Around 67 people were killed, and the event marked the point at which the hitherto largely bloodless revolution turned more violent. The fighting was the immediate cause for the more radical members to leave the revolutionary government and led to resentment among the workers against the Social Democratic government of Friedrich Ebert. This set the scene for the much larger-scale violence of January 1919 known as the Spartacist uprising. Since the revolutionary sailors defeated the regular army force sent against them, the engagement was also an important episode in the rise of the right-wing Freikorps on which the government increasingly relied.
