History+

The Nazi Party Rally Grounds in southeastern Nuremberg served as the venue for the Nazi Party Congresses from 1933 to 1938. The overall planning of the area, which stretched over 16.5 square kilometers, was largely the work of Albert Speer and Walter Brugmann. The foundation stone for the Congress Hall, designed by Ludwig and Franz Ruff, was laid in 1935.
