Tens of thousands gathered across Germany again on Sunday to protest the far-right AfD, after it emerged that party members discussed mass deportation plans at a meeting of extremists.
The influx of demonstrators was so large in Munich that organisers were forced to cancel a planned march and ask people to disperse for safety reasons.
Organisers said some 50,000 people had turned up to the demonstration, twice as many as were registered for the event.
Police estimated a figure somewhere in the middle, around 100,000, according to the German daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung.
Those who made it to the site of the planned protest carried signs saying "Nazis out" and "never again is now".
Some 250,000 people had already gathered in cities across the country on Saturday, according to ARD estimates.
