The Nazi Party Rally Grounds, Nuremberg: Grandstand and Zeppelin Field.

I have wanted to visit Nuremberg for many years and I wasn't disappointed. Although what happened here is clearly not something anyone would want to remember, the city has respectfully maintained the site and added a very worthwhile and informative Documentation Centre (similar ones exist in Munich, Berlin and Berchtesgaden).

In this video I take a long look at the grandstand and Zeppelin field. I was surprised to learn that the stand is still using for a touring car race every year because it isn't in very good condition.

For the first time in many trips to historical places I did feel a bit weird while standing on the spot Hitler stood (I had a similar feeling a few days later on the Eagles Nest).

With hindsight, I didn't dedicate enough time to the site which is truly enormous. The Rally Grounds are quite extensive and even with a vehicle difficult to see in one day. It didn't help that due to the apparently never ending building works (which seem to be a German thing), lots of roads were blocked and re-routed so getting around is quite difficult.
