Nürnberg, Germany

From the entrance lobby to Nuremberg's Documentation Center at the Nazi Party Rally Grounds, visitors can view the continuation of the 130-meter glass and steel "spear," which almost magnetically attracts the eye. The glass elevator tower and open staircase lead to the permanent "Fascination and Terror" exhibition and the Study Forum. The movie theater is suspended asymmetrically from the ceiling above the visitor's head. At the far end of the exhibition tour, the "spear" protrudes beyond the building, giving the visitor a look into the Congress Hall's unfinished interior courtyard. On the way back to the lobby, the spear cuts through other unfinished rooms in the older building, offering views from unusual angles.
