Again if you like ww2 history you must go there. You can see the trial court where the Nazi criminals were trialed, and upstairs you have a very small and very interesting museum about the trial. A must see if you are in the city.

Yes, as Sheilan says it takes longer than you might plan! The exhibition is very detailed and informative. Unusually for museums these days, it provides ample opportunity for people who are intelligent and interested to look at some really quite scholarly displays - ie details on all the defendants, comparisons between Anglo Saxon law and Continental, and so on.

A significant place to visit if WWII history is an interest to you. The court room is the most important aspect, being Court 600 where the famous Nuremberg trials were held. Make sure you listen to the audio guide while in the court room as it gives a lot if information about the trials. There is a museum in the... More

Visited the court house where the Nuremberg Trials where held. Good tour presentation. Tours available on weekends, but we were went on Wednesday and since the court room was not in use, we were allowed to tour it. It is outside the old City walls, so a bit of a walk.

Having visited the Dokumentationszentrum I expected there to be some repetition in the Palace of Justice presentation, but that really wasn't the case. This interactive exhibition really brings home the painstaking organisation of the trials and allows you to relive all of the key moments in sound and vision. There's a huge amount of information available to listen to and... More

Buy a day ticket for EUR 7.50, which includes about 8 Nuremberg museums, including the Dokumentationszentrum which should be seen in conjunction with this museum. There is a thorough exhibition on the top floor, and you get a free audio guide. If you listen to everything, you will be there for ever though! Nice to see Court #600 – it’s... More

The information was well presented. The magnitude of the amount of people and organization and coordination of these proceedings was amazing. While there, you were really able to gain that sense of history and making you reflect on the horror and the efforts to start to repair.

You simply must go here to reflect and remember. The exhibits are amazing. The museum will take you back to a terrible time in German history and the quest for justice after the war. The price of admission is well worth it

I knew practically nothing about the Nuremberg trials other than the high level info most people probably know. This place was excellent. It gave a run down of practically every aspect of the trials, not just the defendants and their crimes and punishment, but also how the trial ws put together and run. There's plenty of archive footage and recordings.... More
