The show focuses on the Huxtable family , an upper middle - class African - American family living in Brooklyn , New York . The Cosby Show spent five consecutive seasons as the number - one rated show on television . The Cosby Show and All in the Family are the only sitcoms in the history of the Nielsen ratings to be the number - one show for five seasons . It spent all eight of its seasons in the top 20 . According to TV Guide , the show `` was TV 's biggest hit in the 1980s , and almost single handedly revived the sitcom genre and NBC 's ratings fortunes . '' TV Guide also ranked it 28th on their list of 50 Greatest Shows . In addition , Cliff Huxtable was named as the `` Greatest Television Dad '' . In May 1992 , Entertainment Weekly stated that The Cosby Show helped to make possible a larger variety of shows with a predominantly African - American cast , from In Living Color to The Fresh Prince of Bel - Air . The Cosby Show was based on comedy routines in Cosby 's stand - up act , which in turn were based on his family life . The show led to the spinoff A Different World , which ran for six seasons from 1987 to 1993 .

However , it is notable for a number of differences from the remainder of the series . In the pilot , the Huxtables have only four children . Following the pilot , the Huxtables have five children , with the addition of their eldest daughter , Sondra ( Sabrina Le Beauf ) , who is mentioned in episode four and appears first in episode 11 . The character was created when Bill Cosby wanted the show to express the accomplishment of successfully raising a child ( i.e. , a college graduate ) . Whitney Houston was considered for the role of Sondra Huxtable . Houston , however , was unable to commit to the full - time television production schedule in the NBC contract , as she was intending to be a full - time music recording artist . Most of the story in the pilot presentation is taken from Bill Cosby 's classic comedy film , Bill Cosby : Himself . Cosby 's character is called `` Clifford '' in the early episodes of the first season ( as evidenced by his name plate on the exterior of the Huxtable home ) . His name was later switched to `` Heathcliff . '' Additionally , Vanessa refers to Theo as `` Teddy '' twice in the dining room scene . The interior of the Huxtables ' home features an entirely different living room from subsequent episodes , and different color schemes in the dining room and the master bedroom . Throughout the remainder of the series , the dining room is reserved for more formal occasions . Background and production ( edit ) Conception and Development ( edit ) The cast of The Cosby Show in 1989 In the early 1980s , Marcy Carsey and Tom Werner , two former executives at ABC , left the network to start their own production company . At ABC , they had overseen sitcoms such as Mork & Mindy , Three 's Company , and Welcome Back , Kotter . The two decided that to get a sitcom to sell for their fledgling company , they needed a big name behind it . Bill Cosby , who starred in two failed sitcoms during the 1970s , produced award - winning stand - up comedy albums , and had roles in several different films , was relatively quiet during the early 1980s . Outside of his work on his cartoon series Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids , Cosby was doing little in film or television , but Carsey and Werner were fans of Cosby 's stand - up comedy and thought it would be the perfect material for a family sitcom . Cosby originally proposed that the couple should both have blue - collar jobs , with the father a limousine driver , who owned his own car , and the mother an electrician . With advice from his wife Camille Cosby , though , the concept was changed so that the family was well - off financially , with the mother a lawyer and the father a physician . Cosby wanted the program to be educational , reflecting his own background in education . He also insisted that the program be taped in New York City instead of Los Angeles , where most television programs were taped . The Huxtable home exterior was filmed at 10 St. Luke 's Place near 7th Avenue in Manhattan 's Greenwich Village ( although in the show , the residence was the fictional `` 10 Stigwood Avenue '' ) . Production notes ( edit ) The brownstone used in The Cosby Show The earliest episodes of the series were videotaped at NBC 's Brooklyn studios ( now owned by JC Studios ) . The network later sold that building , and production moved to the Kaufman Astoria Studios in Queens . Even though the show was set to take place in Brooklyn , the exterior façade was actually of a brownstone townhouse located in Manhattan 's Greenwich Village at 10 Leroy Street / 10 St. Luke 's Place . The pilot was filmed in May 1984 , with season one 's production commencing in July 1984 , and the first taping on August 1 , 1984 ( Goodbye Mr. Goldfish ) . During its original run on NBC , it was one of five successful sitcoms on the network that featured predominantly African - American casts . The other sitcoms were 227 ( 1985 -- 90 ) , Amen ( 1986 -- 91 ) , Cosby Show spin - off A Different World ( 1987 -- 93 ) , and The Fresh Prince of Bel - Air ( 1990 -- 96 ) . Four other NBC sitcoms of that time also featured Black actors and actresses in lead starring or supporting roles -- Nell Carter and Telma Hopkins on Gimme a Break ( 1981 − 87 ) ; Leonard Lightfoot , and later Franklyn Seales and Alfonso Ribeiro on Silver Spoons ( 1982 − 86 ) ; Kim Fields on The Facts of Life ( 1979 − 88 ) , and Gary Coleman and Todd Bridges on Diff'rent Strokes ( 1978 -- 85 ) . Although the cast and characters were predominantly African American , the program was unusual in that issues of race were rarely mentioned when compared to other situation comedies of the time , such as The Jeffersons . However , The Cosby Show had African - American themes , such as the Civil Rights Movement , and it frequently promoted African - American and African culture represented by artists and musicians such as Jacob Lawrence , Miles Davis , James Brown , B.B. King , Stevie Wonder , Sammy Davis , Jr. , Lena Horne , Duke Ellington , Dizzy Gillespie , and Miriam Makeba . The show 's spin off , A Different World , dealt with issues of race more often . The series finale ( taped on March 6 , 1992 ) aired during the 1992 Los Angeles riots , with Cosby quoted in media at the time pleading for peace . During the third season of the show , actress Phylicia Rashad was pregnant with her daughter Condola Rashād . Rather than write this pregnancy into the character of Claire Huxtable , the producers simply greatly reduced Rashad 's scenes or filmed in such a way that her pregnancy was not noticeable . Another pregnancy of one of the main stars , that of Lisa Bonet , almost caused the actress to be fired , especially coming in the wake of appearing in the film Angel Heart , which contained graphic sexual scenes with actor Mickey Rourke . Bill Cosby strongly disapproved of Bonet appearing in the film , but she was allowed to retain her role on A Different World until returning to The Cosby Show after her pregnancy . Tensions remained , however , and Bonet was eventually fired from the show in April 1991 . Theme song and opening sequence ( edit ) The show 's theme music , `` Kiss Me '' , was composed by Stu Gardner and Bill Cosby . Seven versions of this theme were used during the run of the series , making it one of the few television series to use multiple versions of the same theme song over the course of a series . For season four , the theme song music was performed by musician Bobby McFerrin . Due to legal complications regarding the background mural , the opening for season seven ( filmed in August 1990 ) was replaced with the one from the previous season . The original season - seven opening , with slight modifications , returned to use in the beginning of season eight .

Prior to joining the cast as a regular , Joseph C. Phillips appears as Daryl , a potential boyfriend for Sondra in season two ( episode : `` Cliff in Love '' ) . Reception and legacy ( edit ) The show 's portrayal of a successful , stable black family was praised by some for breaking racial stereotypes and showing another part of the African - American experience . However , it was criticized by others , including Henry Louis Gates , for allowing white audiences to think that racism and poverty were problems of the past . As a result of the sexual assault allegations against Cosby , Malcolm - Jamal Warner has stated that the show 's legacy is `` tarnished '' . Broadcast history and Ratings ( edit ) The Cosby Show aired on Thursdays at 8 : 00 pm for all eight seasons . In its first season , the show was the beginning of a Thursday NBC schedule that was followed by Family Ties , Cheers , Night Court , and Hill Street Blues . The Cosby Show is one of three television programs ( All in the Family and American Idol being the others ) that were number one in the Nielsen ratings for five consecutive seasons .

In the United States , The Cosby Show began its television syndication run in September 1988 in broadcast syndication , shortly before the show 's fifth - season premiere , and was at the time distributed by Viacom ; many stations that carried the series were Big Three network affiliates , though since the mid 1990s , the show has largely begun airing on independent stations and minor network affiliates . Fort Worth , Texas - based independent station , KTVT , carried the series until 1995 , when it ceased operating as a regional cable superstation and became an affiliate of CBS . TBS , then a national cable superstation , carried the series for nearly a decade beginning in 1999 . Fellow superstation WGN America began carrying the series shortly thereafter , and continued to until September 2010 . Viacom 's Nick at Nite began airing reruns of the series in March 2002 , and its sister network TV Land began airing reruns in 2004 , making The Cosby Show one of the few series that were shown on both Nick at Nite and TV Land at the same time . Pulled from broadcasting ( edit ) Reruns of The Cosby Show have been pulled as a result of sexual assault allegations against Cosby . In November 2014 , TV Land pulled the series from its lineup . In December 2014 , the Magic Johnson owned network Aspire removed the show from its lineup . BET 's Centric ( another Viacom unit ) stopped airing reruns of The Cosby Show . At the same time , barter syndication The Program Exchange ceased distributing the latter show . Bounce TV resumed airing the series in December 2016 but pulled the show the day Cosby was convicted of sexual assault On May 19 , 2017 , TV One began airing reruns of the show . Spin - off ( edit ) Main article : A Different World The Cosby Show 's producers created a spin - off series called A Different World that was built around the `` Denise '' character ( portrayed by actress Lisa Bonet ) , the second of the Huxtables ' four daughters . Initially , the new program dealt with Denise 's life at Hillman College , the fictional historically black college from which her father , mother , and paternal grandfather had graduated . Denise was written out of A Different World after its inaugural season , due to Bonet 's pregnancy , and the following season was revamped , with the addition of director Debbie Allen ( Phylicia Rashad 's sister ) and new characters . Denise later became a recurring character on The Cosby Show for seasons four and five , and a regular again in seasons six and seven .

Albums ( edit ) Two albums were produced that included various theme and background music from the show . The albums were presented by longtime Cosby collaborator Stu Gardner . They were : A House Full of Love : Music from The Cosby Show ( 1986 ) Total Happiness ( Music from the Bill Cosby Show , Vol. II ) ( 1987 ) In Popular Culture ( edit ) During the series ' run , the character of Cliff Huxtable frequently wore an array of knit sweaters that were often brightly colored and featured abstract , asymmetrical patterns or themes . The sweaters were erroneously thought to be designed by the Australian clothing company Coogi , but were actually designed by Dutchman Koos Van Den Akker . They were dubbed `` Cosby sweaters '' , a term that is used to describe sweaters that are generally deemed garish and unappealing . In May 2008 , Cosby 's daughter Evin auctioned a batch of the sweaters that her father had kept on eBay . The proceeds of the sales went to the Hello Friend / Ennis William Cosby Foundation , a non profit charity named for Ennis Cosby . Ennis , Cosby 's only son , was murdered in January 1997 . The character of Dr. Hibbert , who is featured on the long running animated sitcom The Simpsons , is modelled after Dr. Cliff Huxtable . The Simpsons writing staff decided to make Dr. Hibbert a parody of Cliff Huxtable after the Fox network moved The Simpsons to Thursday nights airing opposite the top rated The Cosby Show . In the Teen Titans Go ! episode `` Oil Drums '' , Starfire says `` I would like to watch The Crosby Pudding Half Hour Show of Sweaters . Theo , get your glorp - nops off the kitchen table . Rudy !

About two thousand Nazis marched to the centre of Munich , where they confronted the police , which resulted in the death of 16 Nazis and four police officers . Hitler was not wounded during the clash , although he locked his left arm with the right arm of Max Erwin von Scheubner - Richter who , when he was shot and killed , pulled Hitler to the pavement with him . Hitler escaped immediate arrest and was spirited off to safety in the countryside . After two days , Hitler was arrested and charged with treason . From Hitler 's perspective , there were three positive benefits from this attempt to seize power unlawfully . First , the putsch brought Hitler to the attention of the German nation and generated front page headlines in newspapers around the world . His arrest was followed by a 24 - day trial , which was widely publicized and gave Hitler a platform to publicize his nationalist sentiment to the nation . Hitler was found guilty of treason and sentenced to five years in Landsberg Prison . The second benefit to Hitler was that he used his time in prison to produce Mein Kampf , which was dictated to his fellow prisoners Emil Maurice and Rudolf Hess . On 20 December 1924 , having served only nine months , Hitler was released . The final benefit to Hitler was the insight that the path to power was through legitimate means rather than revolution or force . Accordingly , the most significant outcome of the putsch was a decision by Hitler to change NSDAP tactics , which would demand an increasing reliance on the development and furthering of Nazi propaganda .

Such beer halls also became the host of occasional political rallies . One of Munich 's largest beer halls was the `` Bürgerbräukeller '' . This was the location of the famous Beer Hall Putsch . The Treaty of Versailles , which ended World War I , sounded the death knell of German power and prestige . Like many Germans of the period , Hitler believed that the treaty was a betrayal , with the country having been `` stabbed in the back '' by its own government , particularly as the German Army was popularly thought to have been undefeated in the field . Germany , it was felt , had been betrayed by civilian leaders and Marxists , who were later called the `` November Criminals '' . Hitler remained in the army , in Munich , after World War I. He participated in various `` national thinking '' courses . These had been organized by the Education and Propaganda Department of the Bavarian Army , under Captain Karl Mayr , of which Hitler became an agent . Captain Mayr ordered Hitler , then an army lance corporal , to infiltrate the tiny Deutsche Arbeiterpartei , abbreviated DAP ( German Workers ' Party ) . Hitler joined the DAP on 12 September 1919 . He soon realized that he was in agreement with many of the underlying tenets of the DAP , and he rose to its top post in the ensuing chaotic political atmosphere of postwar Munich . By agreement , Hitler assumed the political leadership of a number of Bavarian `` patriotic associations '' ( revanchist ) , called the Kampfbund . This political base extended to include about 15,000 Sturmabteilung ( SA , lit . `` Storm Detachment '' ) , the paramilitary wing of the NSDAP . On 26 September 1923 , following a period of turmoil and political violence , Bavarian Prime Minister Eugen von Knilling declared a state of emergency , and Gustav von Kahr was appointed Staatskomissar , or state commissioner , with dictatorial powers to govern the state . In addition to von Kahr , Bavarian state police chief Colonel Hans Ritter von Seisser and Reichswehr General Otto von Lossow formed a ruling triumvirate . Hitler announced that he would hold 14 mass meetings beginning on 27 September 1923 . Afraid of the potential disruption , one of Kahr 's first actions was to ban the announced meetings . Hitler was under pressure to act . The Nazis , with other leaders in the Kampfbund , felt they had to march upon Berlin and seize power or their followers would turn to the Communists . Hitler enlisted the help of World War I general Erich Ludendorff in an attempt to gain the support of Kahr and his triumvirate . However , Kahr had his own plan with Seisser and Lossow to install a nationalist dictatorship without Hitler . November 1923 was the height of hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic . The putsch ( edit ) The attempted putsch was inspired by Benito Mussolini 's successful March on Rome , from 22 to 29 October 1922 . Hitler and his associates planned to use Munich as a base for a march against Germany 's Weimar Republic government . But the circumstances were different from those in Italy . Hitler came to the realization that Kahr sought to control him and was not ready to act against the government in Berlin . Hitler wanted to seize a critical moment for successful popular agitation and support . He decided to take matters into his own hands . Hitler , along with a large detachment of SA , marched on the Bürgerbräukeller , where Kahr was making a speech in front of 3,000 people . In the cold , dark evening , 603 SA surrounded the beer hall and a machine gun was set up in the auditorium . Hitler , surrounded by his associates Hermann Göring , Alfred Rosenberg , Rudolf Hess , Ernst Hanfstaengl , Ulrich Graf , Johann Aigner , Adolf Lenk , Max Amann , Max Erwin von Scheubner - Richter , Wilhelm Adam , and others ( some 20 in all ) , advanced through the crowded auditorium . Unable to be heard above the crowd , Hitler fired a shot into the ceiling and jumped on a chair yelling : `` The national revolution has broken out ! The hall is filled with six hundred men . Nobody is allowed to leave . '' He went on to state the Bavarian government was deposed and declared the formation of a new government with Ludendorff . Hitler , accompanied by Hess , Lenk and Graf , ordered the triumvirate of Kahr , Seisser , and Lossow into an adjoining room at gunpoint and demanded they support the putsch . Hitler demanded they accept government positions he assigned them . Hitler had promised Lossow a few days earlier that he would not attempt a coup , but now thought that he would get an immediate response of affirmation from them , imploring Kahr to accept the position of Regent of Bavaria . Kahr replied that he could not be expected to collaborate , especially as he had been taken out of the auditorium under heavy guard . Heinz Pernet , Johann Aigne and Scheubner - Richter were dispatched to pick up Ludendorff , whose personal prestige was being harnessed to give the Nazis credibility . A telephone call was made from the kitchen by Hermann Kriebel to Ernst Röhm , who was waiting with his Bund Reichskriegsflagge in the Löwenbräukeller , another beer hall , and he was ordered to seize key buildings throughout the city . At the same time , co-conspirators under Gerhard Rossbach mobilized the students of a nearby Officers Infantry school to seize other objectives . Hitler became irritated by Kahr and summoned Ernst Pöhner , Friedrich Weber and Hermann Kriebel to stand in for him while he returned to the auditorium flanked by Rudolf Hess and Adolf Lenk . He followed up on Göring 's speech and stated that the action was not directed at the police and Reichswehr , but against `` ... the Berlin Jew government and the November criminals of 1918 '' . Dr. Karl Alexander von Mueller , a professor of modern history and political science at the University of Munich and a supporter of Kahr , was an eyewitness . He reported : I can not remember in my entire life such a change in the attitude of a crowd in a few minutes , almost a few seconds ... Hitler had turned them inside out , as one turns a glove inside out , with a few sentences . It had almost something of hocus - pocus , or magic about it . Hitler ended his speech with : `` Outside are Kahr , Lossow and Seisser . They are struggling hard to reach a decision . May I say to them that you will stand behind them ? '' Odeonsplatz in Munich on 9 November . The crowd in the hall backed Hitler with a roar of approval . He finished triumphantly : You can see that what motivates us is neither self - conceit or self - interest , but only a burning desire to join the battle in this grave eleventh hour for our German Fatherland ... One last thing I can tell you . Either the German revolution begins tonight or we will all be dead by dawn ! Hitler returned to the anteroom , where the triumvirs remained , to ear - shattering acclaim , which the triumvirs could not have failed to notice . On his way back , Hitler ordered Göring and Hess to take Eugen von Knilling and seven other members of the Bavarian government into custody . During Hitler 's speech , Pöhner , Weber , and Kriebel had been trying in a conciliatory fashion to bring the triumvirate round to their point of view . The atmosphere in the room had become lighter but Kahr continued to dig in his heels . Ludendorff showed up a little before 9 p.m. and , being shown into the ante - room , concentrated on Lossow and Seisser , appealing to their sense of duty . Eventually the triumvirate reluctantly gave in . Hitler , Ludendorff et al. returned to the main hall 's podium , where they gave speeches and shook hands . The crowd was then allowed to leave the hall . In a tactical mistake , Hitler decided to leave the Bürgerbräukeller shortly thereafter to deal with a crisis elsewhere . Around 10 : 30 p.m. , Ludendorff released Kahr and his associates . The night was marked by confusion and unrest among government officials , armed forces , police units , and individuals deciding where their loyalties lay . Units of the Kampfbund were scurrying around to arm themselves from secret caches , and seizing buildings . At around 3 am , the first casualties of the putsch occurred when the local garrison of the Reichswehr spotted Röhm 's men coming out of the beer hall . They were ambushed while trying to reach the Reichswehr barracks by soldiers and state police ; shots were fired , but there were no fatalities on either side . Encountering heavy resistance , Röhm and his men were forced to fall back . In the meantime , the Reichswehr officers put the whole garrison on alert and called for reinforcements . Foreign attachés were seized in their hotel rooms and put under house arrest . Early Nazis who participated in the attempt to seize power during the 1923 Putsch In the early morning , Hitler ordered the seizure of the Munich city council as hostages . He further sent the communications officer of the Kampfbund , Max Neunzert , to enlist the aid of Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria to mediate between Kahr and the putschists . Neunzert failed in the mission . By midmorning on 9 November , Hitler realized that the putsch was going nowhere . The Putschists did not know what to do and were about to give up . At this moment , Ludendorff cried out , `` Wir marschieren ! '' ( We will march ! ) . Röhm 's force together with Hitler 's ( a total of approximately 2000 men ) marched out -- but with no specific plan of where to go . On the spur of the moment , Ludendorff led them to the Bavarian Defence Ministry . However , at the Odeonsplatz in front of the Feldherrnhalle , they met a force of 130 soldiers blocking the way under the command of State Police Senior Lieutenant Baron Michael von Godin . The two groups exchanged fire , killing four state police officers and 16 Nazis . This was the origin of the Blutfahne ( blood - flag ) , which became stained with the blood of two SA members who were shot : the flagbearer Heinrich Trambauer , who was badly wounded , and Andreas Bauriedl , who fell dead onto the fallen flag . A bullet killed Scheubner - Richter . Göring was shot in the leg , but escaped . The rest of the Nazis scattered or were arrested . Hitler was arrested two days later . In a description of Ludendorff 's funeral at the Feldherrnhalle in 1937 ( which Hitler attended but without speaking ) William L. Shirer wrote : `` The World War ( One ) hero ( Ludendorff ) had refused to have anything to do with him ( Hitler ) ever since he had fled from in front of the Feldherrnhalle after the volley of bullets during the Beer Hall Putsch . '' However , when a consignment of papers relating to Landsberg prison ( including the visitor book ) were later sold at auction , it was noted that Ludendorff had visited Hitler a number of times . The case of the resurfacing papers was reported in Der Spiegel ( `` The Mirror '' , German news magazine ) on 23 June 2006 ; the new information ( which came out more than 30 years after Shirer wrote his book , and which Shirer did not have access to ) nullifies Shirer 's statement . Counterattack ( edit ) State Police and Police units were first notified of trouble by three police detectives stationed at the Löwenbräukeller . These reports reached Major Sigmund von Imhoff of the State police . He immediately called all his green police units and had them seize the central telegraph office and the telephone exchange , although his most important act was to notify Major - General Jakob von Danner , the Reichswehr city commandant of Munich . As a staunch aristocrat , Danner loathed the `` little corporal '' and those `` Freikorps bands of rowdies '' . He also did not much like his commanding officer , Generalleutnant Otto von Lossow , `` a sorry figure of a man '' . He was determined to put down the putsch with or without Lossow . Danner set up a command post at the 19th Infantry Regiment barracks and alerted all military units . Meanwhile , Captain Karl Wild , learning of the putsch from marchers , mobilized his command to guard Kahr 's government building , the Commissariat , with orders to shoot . Around 11 p.m. , Major - General von Danner , along with fellow generals Adolf Ritter von Ruith and Friedrich Freiherr Kress von Kressenstein , compelled Lossow to repudiate the putsch . There was one member of the cabinet who was not at the Bürgerbräukeller : Franz Matt , the vice-premier and minister of education and culture . A staunchly conservative Roman Catholic , he was having dinner with the Archbishop of Munich , Cardinal Michael von Faulhaber and with the Nuncio to Bavaria , Archbishop Eugenio Pacelli ( who would later become Pope Pius XII ) , when he learned of the putsch . He immediately telephoned Kahr . When he found the man vacillating and unsure , Matt decisively began plans to set up a rump government - in - exile in Regensburg and composed a proclamation calling upon all police officers , members of the armed forces , and civil servants to remain loyal to the government . The action of these few men spelled doom for those attempting the putsch . On Wednesday , 3,000 students from the University of Munich rioted and marched to the Feldherrnhalle to lay wreaths . They continued to riot until Friday , when they learned of Hitler 's arrest . Kahr and Lossow were called Judases and traitors . Trial and prison ( edit ) Defendants in the Beer Hall Putsch trial . From left to right : Pernet , Weber , Frick , Kriebel , Ludendorff , Hitler , Bruckner , Röhm , and Wagner . Note that only two of the defendants ( Hitler and Frick ) were wearing civilian clothes . All those in uniform are carrying swords , indicating officer and / or aristocratic status Two days after the putsch , Hitler was arrested and charged with high treason in the special People 's Court . Some of his fellow conspirators , including Rudolf Hess , were also arrested , while others , including Hermann Göring and Ernst Hanfstaengl , escaped to Austria . The Nazi Party 's headquarters was raided , and its newspaper , the Völkischer Beobachter ( `` The People 's Observer '' ) , was banned . In January 1924 , the Emminger Reform , an emergency decree , abolished the jury as trier of fact and replaced it with a mixed system of judges and lay judges in Germany 's judiciary , which still exists . This was not the first time Hitler had been in trouble with the law . In an incident in September 1921 , he and some men of the SA had disrupted a meeting of the Bayernbund ( `` Bavaria Union '' ) which Otto Ballerstedt , a Bavarian federalist , was to have addressed , and the Nazis who had gone there to cause trouble were arrested as a result . Hitler ended up serving a little over a month of a three - month jail sentence . Judge Georg Neithardt ( de ) was the presiding judge at both of Hitler 's trials . Hitler 's trial began on 26 February 1924 and lasted until 1 April 1924 . Lossow acted as chief witness for the prosecution . Hitler moderated his tone for the trial , centering his defense on his selfless devotion to the good of the people and the need for bold action to save them ; dropping his usual anti-Semitism . He claimed the putsch had been his sole responsibility , inspiring the title `` Führer '' or `` Leader '' . The lay judges were fanatically pro-Nazi and had to be dissuaded by the presiding Judge , Georg Neithardt ( de ) , from acquitting Hitler . Hitler and Hess were both sentenced to five years in Festungshaft ( literally fortress confinement ) for treason . Festungshaft was the mildest of the three types of jail sentence available in German law at the time ; it excluded forced labour , provided reasonably comfortable cells , and allowed the prisoner to receive visitors almost daily for many hours . This was the customary sentence for those whom the judge believed to have had honourable but misguided motives , and it did not carry the stigma of a sentence of Gefängnis or Zuchthaus . In the end , Hitler served only a little over eight months of this sentence before his early release for good behaviour . However , Hitler used the trial as an opportunity to spread his ideas . The event was extensively covered in the newspapers the next day . The judges were impressed ( Presiding Judge Neithardt was inclined to favouritism towards the defendants prior to the trial ) , and as a result Hitler served a little over eight months and was fined 500 Reichsmark . Due to his story that he was present by accident , an explanation he had also used in the Kapp Putsch , along with his war service and connections , Ludendorff was acquitted . Both Röhm and Wilhelm Frick , though found guilty , were released . Göring , meanwhile , had fled after suffering a bullet wound to his leg , which led him to become increasingly dependent on morphine and other painkilling drugs . This addiction continued throughout his life . One of Hitler 's greatest worries at the trial was that he was at risk of being deported back to his native Austria by the Bavarian government . The trial judge , Neithardt , was very sympathetic towards Hitler and held that the relevant laws of the Weimar Republic could not be applied to a man `` who thinks and feels like a German , as Hitler does . '' The result was that the Nazi leader remained in Germany . Though Hitler failed to achieve his immediate stated goal , the putsch did give the Nazis their first exposure to national attention and a propaganda victory . While serving their `` fortress confinement '' sentences at Landsberg am Lech , Hitler , Emil Maurice and Rudolf Hess wrote Mein Kampf . Also , the putsch changed Hitler 's outlook on violent revolution to effect change . From then on he thought that , in order to win the German heart , he must do everything by the book , `` strictly legal '' . The process of combination , where the conservative - nationalist - monarchist group thought that its members could piggyback onto , and control , the National Socialist movement to garner the seats of power , was to repeat itself ten years later in 1933 when Franz von Papen would legally ask Hitler to form a coalition government .

Scheubner - Richter was walking arm - in - arm with Hitler during the putsch ; he was shot in the lungs and died instantly . He brought Hitler down and dislocated Hitler 's shoulder when he fell . He was the only first - tier Nazi leader to die during the Putsch . Of all the party members who died in the Putsch , Hitler claimed Scheubner - Richter to be the only `` irreplaceable loss '' . According to Ernst Röhm , Martin Faust and Theodor Casella , both members of the armed militia organisation Reichskriegsflagge , were shot down accidentally in a burst of machine gun fire during the occupation of the War Ministry as the result of a misunderstanding with II / Inf. Regt 19 . Martyrdom ( edit ) One of the Munich Ehrentempels ( Honour Temples ) , 1936 The 16 fallen were regarded as the first `` blood martyrs '' of the NSDAP and were remembered by Hitler in the foreword of Mein Kampf . The Nazi flag they carried , which in the course of events had been stained with blood , came to be known as the Blutfahne ( blood flag ) and was brought out for the swearing - in of new recruits in front of the Feldherrnhalle when Hitler was in power . Shortly after he came to power , a memorial was placed at the south side of the Feldherrnhalle crowned with a swastika . The back of the memorial read Und ihr habt doch gesiegt ! ( And you triumphed nevertheless ! ) . Behind it flowers were laid , and either policemen or the SS stood guard in between a lower plaque . Passers - by were required to give the Hitler salute . The putsch was also commemorated on three sets of stamps . Mein Kampf was dedicated to the fallen and , in the book Ich Kämpfe ( given to those joining the party circa 1943 ) , they are listed first even though the book lists hundreds of other dead . The header text in the book read `` Though they are dead for their acts they will live on forever . '' The army had a division named the Feldherrnhalle regiment , and there was also an SA Feldherrnhalle division . Der neunte Elfte ( 9 / 11 , literally the Ninth of the Eleventh ) became one of the most important dates on the Nazi calendar , especially following the seizure of power in 1933 . Annually until the fall of Nazi Germany , the putsch would be commemorated nationwide , with the major events taking place in Munich . On the night of 8 November , Hitler would address the Alte Kämpfer ( Old Fighters ) in the Bürgerbräukeller ( after 1939 , the Löwenbräu , in 1944 , the Circus Krone Building ) , followed the next day by a re-enactment of the march through the streets of Munich . The event would climax with a ceremony recalling the 16 dead marchers on the Königsplatz . The anniversary could be a time of tension in Nazi Germany . The ceremony was cancelled in 1934 , coming as it did after the so - called Night of the Long Knives . In 1938 , it coincided with the Kristallnacht , and in 1939 with the attempted assassination of Hitler by Johann Georg Elser . With the outbreak of war in 1939 , security concerns caused the re-enactment of the march to be suspended , never to be resumed . However , Hitler continued to deliver his 8 November speech through 1943 . In 1944 , Hitler skipped the event and Heinrich Himmler spoke in his place . As the war went on , residents of Munich came increasingly to dread the approach of the anniversary , concerned that the presence of the top Nazi leaders in their city would act as a magnet for Allied bombers . Every Gau ( administrative region of Germany ) was also expected to hold a small remembrance ceremony . As material given to propagandists said , the 16 fallen were the first losses and the ceremony was an occasion to commemorate everyone who had died for the movement . On 9 November 1935 , the dead were taken from their graves and to the Feldherrnhalle . The SA and SS carried them down to the Königplatz , where two Ehrentempel ( Honour Temples ) had been constructed . In each of the structures eight of the martyrs were interred in a sarcophagus bearing their name . Plaque commemorating policemen In June 1945 the Allied Commission removed the bodies from the Ehrentempels and contacted their families . They were given the option of having their loved ones buried in Munich cemeteries in unmarked graves or having them cremated , common practice in Germany for unclaimed bodies . On 9 January 1947 , the upper parts of the structures were blown up . Since 1994 , a commemorative plaque in the pavement in front of the Feldherrnhalle contains the names of the four Bavarian policemen who died in the fight against the Nazis . The plaque reads : Den Mitgliedern der Bayerischen Landespolizei , die beim Einsatz gegen die Nationalsozialistischen Putschisten am 9.11. 1923 Ihr Leben ließen .
