The Nuremberg Trials

The Nuremberg TrialsAfter World War II., world attention was focussed on Nuremberg. Brought before Allied judges in the city's Palace of Justice in Fürther Street, leading representatives of the Nazi regime were tried for war crimes. Long repressed in the German consciousness, the Nuremberg Trials from 1945 to 1949 are regarded today as a milestone in the establishment of international law. This illustrated fifth volume in the "Historic Walks" provides information on the background and the unfolding of the Nuremberg Trials. In addition, it describes the various locations where the historic events took place.
