Which German city was the location of the war crime trials of Nazi leaders after World War II?
Berlin
Nuremberg
Munich
Hamburg
Fact: The landmark war crime proceedings against top Nazi officials were held in the city of Nuremberg, beginning in November 1945. The Allies chose Nuremberg for symbolic and practical reasons: it had been a major center of Nazi Party rallies, yet its Palace of Justice survived the war largely intact and included a large prison complex. The Nuremberg Trials became a historic turning point in international law, establishing the principles of individual accountability for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and crimes against peace.
Correct Answer: Nuremberg
