    The article you linked says

    Göring had noted the swastika during his stay in Sweden and at von Rosens’ castle (forged into a metal piece at the fireplace). However, the swastika of the German Nazi party had been adopted already in 1920, two years before Göring met Adolf Hitler.

    Seems like a case of multiple shitheads liking the same symbol independently?

      Now why would a count van rosen, who hosts hermann göring in his castle before the nazis even have any power, be taken to the swastika?

      Just one of those random coincidences I’m sure…
