About

The Documentation Center Nazi Party Rally Grounds in Nuremberg offers a sobering journey into the history of the Third Reich. Set within the northern wing of the unfinished Congress Hall, the museum hosted the former permanent exhibition “Fascination and Violence,” which drew 311,588 visitors in 2019, and features an interim exhibition covering the rallies and their legacy. In May 2021 the center unveiled a new temporary series titled “Nuremberg – Site of the Nazi Party Rallies. The Staging, the Experience, the Violence,” with a permanent exhibition slated for 2025. Beyond the galleries, the attached Education Forum hosts seminars, guided tours, and interactive displays aimed at schools, students, and researchers, making the center a critical locus for remembrance and learning.
