Nuernberg Germany - Zeppelin Tribune

The Zeppelin , Nuernberger Tribune. This was built by the Nazis, this is the place where Hitler stood to give his speeches.
Germans where thankful when the Allied forces came, and brought an end to this terrible era.






After the Allies arrived, Germany helped to tear down the Nazi Schwastikas. The Americans took over the Barracks and in the mornings the American Army would run PT around the the tribune and the Colosseum.

It was in Nuernberg where the infamous  "Nuremberg Trials" where held.
