This is a monumental three-storey and horseshoe-shaped complex with two rectangular head buildings with courtyards, modeled on the Roman Colosseum.
The hall was planned as a convention center for the Nazi Party with space for 50,000 people. The building was never finished. Of the planned height of around 70 meters, only 39 were reached.
Interior views of the building can be found with admission to the Dokumentationszentrum.
