The Nazi party rally grounds (Reich Party Congress Grounds) covered about 11 square kilometers in the southeast of Nuremberg, Germany. 6 Nazi party rallies were held there between 1933 and 1938.
The grounds were designed by Hitler's architect Albert Speer, except for the Congress Hall, which was designed by Ludwig and Franz Ruff.
Today the whole site is a memorial. It has hosted the annual Norisring Speedweekend motorsport festival since 1947, and the Rock Im Park rock music festival since 2004.
There is no admission fee to enter the rally grounds (Zeppelin Field) and the congress hall. There is a small fee to enter the documentation center.
There is a public restroom right behind the ticket information center. The congress hall and the documentation center are just a few steps from the visitor center and a short walk from the tram stop. The rally grounds site (Zeppelin Field), however, is a bit of a long walk from the visitor center. It might take you up to 45 minutes to reach the rally grounds.
You will walk through a street called the Great Road when walking from the documentation center to the rally grounds site. The great road was intended to be the central axis of the site and a parade road for the Wehrmacht.
You will also see a lake called silver lake (Silbersee) along the hiking trail to the rally grounds site. It is a rather nice trail that a lot of local people use for their daily exercises.

Thank you for sharing your fascinating experience! Touring Germany in a motorcaravan and exploring WW2 sites must have been an incredible journey. I'm thrilled to hear that you've enjoyed my videos.

We also ventured into East Germany Just weeks after the wall fell. We visited Colditz castle, it was still a mental hospital but we were shown round by a guy we met as we walked up to the castle, We visited Buchenwald concentration camp, and ended up in Kladow, Berlin, on a camp site and walked around some of the sites close by. My son and I climbed up into one of the East german wall observation towers, that looked into the west. We went into a wooded area, the trees were all rotten, my sone kicked one over, something flew up its a Luftwaffe Spoon, I still have it, he also climbed up one of the electric fence poles and broke off a Fuse holder which we still have. In the woods we could see evidence of trenches and fox holes. We also walked across from the Brandenburg gate across the dead no mans land to the location of the Riech Chancellery and bunker, then a big sandy heap, someone had stuck a handprinted sign on a pole, into the ground that said in German site of Hitlers bunker. It was a amazing time. @@WandererBell

A good video. A reason the big doors are ceiled is because the hall inside has swastika’s on the ceiling. They are in gold. One of the original tribune cauldrons is in there too. Would love to look inside too.

Thank you. I think they are planning to make it a museum/park in the near future.
