We are in the third (day) in Germany and having tons of fun. this morning I woke up late, but managed to be able to make it out on time.
We started our day with a tour of the Documentation Center Party Rally Grounds. There we saw the place where Hitler held his rallies to give hope to the soldiers and citizens. We visited the Coliseum that was not finish after the WWII. We toured the Grounds for about and two hours.
After the Grounds tour, we toured the inside of the Documentation Center Exhibition with an audio device in English. There we viewed videos and read documents that relation to the Nazi government and Hitler’s politics. I was excited to see more about the concentration camp and the Jews’ way of like during the Holocaust, but unfortunately I did not see any relations.
After lunch at Restaurant Wanner, we viewed a video presentation of the Court Room 600 of the Nurnberg Trials. The trial prosecuted the leaders that were involved in the knowing of Hitlers’ plans for the concentration camps. The trial was so intense that four main judges and four substitute judges from Russia, France, United States of America, and Britain were in the judges of the Nurnberg trial.

The Commissioners and Scholars enjoyed all the tours and the information that was giving.
