About this audio guide
This guide to the Documentation Center Nazi Party Rally Grounds in Nuremberg starts on a winter day in two thousand, when builders began work on the unfinished Congress Hall in an unusual way. It reaches back to nineteen thirty-five, the year of the race laws and the hall's foundation stone, and to the Austrian architect Günther Domenig and his answer to a building the city had lived beside for decades. Best heard outside the entrance.
