A History Lesson in Nuremberg, Nuremberg, Germany

We began our morning at the Documentation Center or in German Dokumentationszentrum Reichsparteitagsgelände at 10am when the museum opened. The Documentation Center is the last stop on line 8 of the above ground tram.

The final stop on line 8 is Doku-Zentrum which means Documentation Center and the tram stops right in front of it. Next to the Documentation Center is Zepplin Field which was the Nazi Party Rally Grounds.
