Here are republished, in the original and in English translation, three German articles on mazes that appeared in the periodical Germanien in 1934–1940. The translations (by Michael Behrend) were first published in 1978–1980.
Also republished here is Nigel Pennick’s survey of European labyrinths, which includes a summary of the German research.
The translations were duplicated from typewritten stencils, and it was not practicable to include all the illustrations. In this Web version, all the illustrations are included.
The digitized version contains the following Web pages:
