🇩🇪 Nuremberg: Where Darkness Met Justice

⚖️ "A city forever marked as both the Nazis' stage and their courtroom." ☠️ Nazi Ground Zero 🏛️ Kongresshalle Congress Hall Larger than the Roman Colosseum, this unfinished megalomaniac project now stands as a crumbling monument to fascism (open for tours). 🎥 Memorium Nuremberg Trials Essential prep: Watch "Nuremberg: Its Lesson for Today" (1948 documentary) before visiting. Courtroom 600 still hosts trials today—justice echoes through its walls. ⚡ The Trial That Changed History Birth of modern international law First use of simultaneous interpretation (the "Nuremberg headphones") Controversy: Was it victors' justice? Hermann Göring thought so—he cheated the gallows by suicide. 🎨 Beyond the Darkness 🖼️ Albrecht Dürer's House See where the Renaissance genius painted his famous hare 🐇 🏰 Imperial Castle (Kaiserburg) Barbarossa’s favorite pad—climb the Sinwell Tower for views 🌉 The Bridges of Pegnitz 7 unique spans—best photographed at dawn when the water mirrors their arches 💡 Travel Truths ⚠️ Half a day? Impossible. You’ll need: 2hrs for Nazi sites (heavy but essential) 1hr for Dürer’s world 1hr to get lost in the old town #DarkTourism #NeverAgain #NurembergBalance
