Exhibition Nuremberg - Nazi Party Rally Grounds Nuremberg
To this day, in Nuremberg's southern districts, the remains of the buildings on the former Nazi Party Rally Grounds with their immense proportions are a vivid testimony to the megalomania of the National Socialist regime.

This area of eleven square kilometres was intended as an impressive backdrop for the Nazi party rallies staged here to demonstrate their power.

The Documentation Centre Nazi Party Rally Grounds, often shortened to Dokuzentrum (Docu Centre), is located in the north wing of the Congress Hall, designed by the National Socialists to house 50,000 spectators, remained unfinished, though. With its "glass and steel arrow", piercing the north wing, the Documentation Centre is a widely visible architectural counterpoint.

On 1,300 square meters, the permanent exhibition "Fascination and Terror" looks at the causes, the context and the consequences of the National Socialist reign of terror.

Since May 2006, a comprehensive information system (German/ English) located at various points throughout the Nazi Party Rally Grounds offers all visitors the opportunity of an in-depth look at the Nazi Party Rallies on the spot.
