Valkyrie was a German World War II plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler and overthrow the Nazi government. Conceived by military officers, the plan aimed to use the Reserve Army to maintain order after Hitler's death, allowing for a transition to a new government. The most notable attempt occurred on July 20, 1944, when Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg planted a bomb at Hitler's headquarters; however, the assassination failed, leading to severe reprisals against the conspirators. The event remains a significant moment in German history, symbolizing resistance to tyranny.
