It is still considered amongst Speer ' s most important works . The idea was disliked by the Luftwaffe commander Hermann Göring , because the number of searchlights represented most of Germany ' s strategic reserve , but Hitler overruled him , suggesting that it was a useful piece of disinformation . " If we use them in such large numbers for a thing like this , other countries will think we ' re swimming in searchlights . " British Ambassador Sir Nevile Henderson said that it " was both solemn and beautiful . . . like being in a cathedral of ice . "
