The article deals with design and construction of German highway of young graduates from German Technical University in Prague in the years 1935 to 1938. This strategy devised by professors of Prague German High schools (Tschermak-Seysenegg, Buntru, Wanke) should help with enforcement of unemployed Sudeten German graduates of civil engineering on the one hand and with rapprochement of Bohemian (Sudetenland) Germans with the national socialism in the German Reich on the other hand. The strategy was realized even in spite of initial opposition of German Ministry of War that refused to give employment to foreigners at the construction of German highways.
