Germany’s Biggest Secrets is a popular TV documentary format that deals with mysterious, historical and cultural topics from Germany. The series presents hidden places, mystical stories, unsolved puzzles and little-known aspects of German history and prepares them for a broad audience. The aim is to arouse curiosity and fascination for the hidden and to illuminate both historical facts and legends.
The format offers thematic links for photography, as many of the places and stories covered – such as abandoned chapels, old cemeteries or mysterious caves – can also serve as inspiring backdrops for artistic shoots. Especially in the areas of dark fashion, fantasy and nude photography, such mysterious settings can be creatively taken up and visually implemented.
