Documentation Centre for the History of National Socialism
The recently-opened documentation centre offers visitors a chance to explore the history of the Nazi Party in Munich, where the rise of the Nationalist Socialist movement first began. Located among the neo-classical buildings of Königplatz, the stark modernist building houses a permanent collection of photographs, videos and texts dedicated to coming to terms with the past.
