One of the aims is always to establish a connection with the realities of young people’s or adults’ lives.

The Way consists of 27 white pillars, each eight metres high, two plaques in the ground, a pillar oak and a gateway. The guided tour will take an in-depth look at this very special street, and will highlight the intellectual, spiritual, political and social aspects of this work of art.
The guided tour is directed at groups, either of young people or adults.

A close look at human rights is intended to increase one’s own awareness and understanding of human rights topics. In the course of this, City of Nuremberg personnel learn about the City’s varied human rights activities.

The discussions are supplemented by examples from the everyday working life of the respective departments.

“Against National Socialism: Human Rights“

The crimes of National Socialism led to world-wide horror. In 1948, the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights” for the first time established a moral, political and legal basis for state actions. From now on, governments were never to treat their citizens arbitrarily. The questions of how far the hopes of this era have been fulfilled and what importance human rights have for contemporary politics are discussed.

From the Nuremberg Trials to the International Criminal Court

The International Military Tribunal of the main war criminals in Nuremberg and the “Nuremberg Principles” form the starting point for this seminar. The legal and political foundations of this “trial of the century” will be introduced and compared to the newly established International Criminal Court in The Hague.

Seminars on these two topics may be booked by school classes from the 9th form, vocational school classes, secondary school classes at the qualification stage, in-service training groups from the army, the police and other interested professions.
