No base was ever developed on the Antarctic continent by the Nazi regime. However, there were fly-overs that purportedly dropped Nazi flags on the ice.

From WebUrbanist: "One of the most mysterious episodes in Antarctic exploration involves Nazi Germany, who claimed and explored a large area of Antarctica in the late 1930s. The expeditions included Dornier flying boats that mapped and photographed extensive areas of "New Swabia". The planes dropped a series of Nazi flag pennants and boundary poles over the territory, none of which have been recovered… yet."
