The congress hall at the Nazi Party Rally Grounds in Nuremberg was built as a meeting hall for the party days of the Nazi Party. The massive building was designed for 50,000 participants. The construction work were stoped during the World War II. So the building was not completed. Especially the viewers ranks in the interior and the roof are missing. The building is 275m long, 256m wide and about 40m high. It is probably the largest building in Nuremberg. From the west side it reminds at the Colosseum in Rome. In the north wing is located the Documentation Centre of the Nazi Party Rally Grounds with the very interesting exhibition “Fasziantion and Terror”. In south wing the Nuremberg Symphony have their domicile. The main building serves as a warehouse.
