The Nuremberg Colosseum is a somber and important, part of the city's history.
Never completed, this massive structure was intended to be one and a half times larger as that its ancient and immense inspiration in Rome.
Built by the Third Reich to be used as a center for rallies, it was initially given the moniker Congress Hall, but is more popularly known as the Colosseum of Nuremberg.
This Colosseum never reached its imagined glory owing to its abandonment part way through the construction.
The structure now functions as a center for documentation, dealing with the history of the Nazi regime in Nuremberg.
Though beautifully crafted, this landmark stands a grim reminder of the past and a caution for the future.
