We take you on a virtual journey through space and time: The media installation "Zeitreise Saal 600 | Courtroom 600: Time Travel" takes you back almost 80 years to the historic event of the Nuremberg Trials and lets you experience Courtroom 600 in a new way.

The historical site has changed significantly due to its diverse construction history. The media installation brings together original footage from the Nuremberg Trials with a digital reconstruction of Courtroom 600, showing it in a completely new way at the time of the Nuremberg Trials. Extensive technology allows a play between the digital reconstruction of the room, the historical film and photo material as well as a visual world that makes the room's impact on the world's historical development understandable and emphasises the importance of international law to this day.

The media installation can be seen as part of the permanent exhibition from 21 November 2022 at the following times every day (except Tuesdays). Please arrive in good time, as access will no longer be possible after the media installation has started:
10.30am, 12pm, 1.30pm, 3pm and 4.30pm

We deliberately avoid showing acts of violence. Nevertheless, serious human rights violations and war crimes are addressed and reflected upon.
