Congress Hall Nuremberg
The Documentation Centre Nazi Party Rally Grounds is located in the north wing of the Congress Hall, a building planned by the National Socialists to hold 50,000 people but never completed. The upper level with approximately 1,300 square metres of floor space will house a new permanent exhibition entitled Faszination und Gewalt (Fascination and Terror) dealing with the causes, relationships and consequences of National Socialist tyranny. Topics directly associated with Nuremberg form the major focus of the exhibition, which is organised into 19 chronologically structured exhibition areas. These topics include: the history of the Nazi Party Rallies, the buildings at the Party Rally Grounds, the "Nuremberg Laws" of 1935, the 1945/46 Nuremberg Trial of the people and major organisations chiefly responsible for the NS crimes, the twelve Subsequent Proceedings, and the difficulty of dealing sensitively with the National Socialist architectural legacy after 1945.

Congratulations! The detail in your photographs is amazing! I just joined the gigapan beta project and I am buying a Canon SX110 IS camera to use with it. I also have a Canon 5D DSLR. My preference would have been to use the larger camera. Do you know if anyone is planning to commercially sell a larger gigapanbot, similar to the one you developed? Last question! Have you made any large prints of your work? I think looking at the images on screen is one thing but seeing a large print on a well lit wall is another.

Hi Sharam, thank you. I'm looking for a company to manufacture the GigaPanBot for the future. Right now it is a very good working prototype. Yes I did print 2 large panoramas, not at full resolution but still very impressive.
