What to expect
Kongresshalle Nurnberg
The Kongresshalle in Nuremberg, part of the former Nazi Party Rally Grounds, was designed by architects Ludwig Ruff and Franz Ruff in the 1930s. Inspired by Rome's Colosseum, it was intended to host 50,000 people but was never completed due to WWII. The massive, horseshoe-shaped structure stands as a haunting symbol of Nazi ambition and propaganda. Post-war, it was left largely untouched and now houses the Documentation Center, which educates visitors about the Nazi era, preserving the site as a powerful reminder of Germany’s history.

Hall of Honour
The Luitpoldarena in Nuremberg was a vast parade ground built in the 1930s for Nazi Party rallies, capable of hosting over 100,000 people. It was built around "Ehrenhalle" (Hall of honor) for the WWI veterans. While the Nazis missused it for honoring the fallen "old-comrades" of the "Hitlerputsch" it is now used as a public park, preserving some remnants as a somber reminder of Nazi history and the dangers of totalitarianism.
20 minutes
Nuremberg
The "Great Street" at the Nazi Party Rally Grounds in Nuremberg was a 1.5-mile-long granite road designed by Albert Speer as a central axis for marches and parades. Oriented toward the imperial city of Nuremberg, it symbolized the Nazis' attempt to link their regime to Germany's historic past. The street was intended for grand military processions and formations during rallies but was barely used due to the outbreak of WWII.
20 minutes
The Zeppelinfeld in Nuremberg was a major site of Nazi Party rallies, designed by Albert Speer in the 1930s. It featured a massive grandstand inspired by ancient Greek and Roman architecture, with a central platform where Hitler addressed crowds of up to 200,000 people. Iconic for its huge swastika, which was famously blown up by Allied forces after WWII, the site symbolized Nazi power.
