A City Walk with Depth
This tour is not a superficial overview, but a cultural enrichment with a clear historical perspective. Using testimonies, objects, and biographies, a discovery experience unfolds that connects Freiburg's local history with the impacts of National Socialism. The exhibition is structured on several levels and works with interactive stations, digital media, and a former air raid shelter.

Authentic Places, Precise Contextualization
Particularly impressive is the venue itself: The Documentation Center National Socialism is located in the former traffic office at Rotteckring 14 and is firmly embedded in the city's history as a place of learning and remembrance. The exhibition highlights Freiburg from 1918 to the present, shows the scope of action of individual people, and commemorates the persecuted and victims of the regime in the memorial room. This creates a city tour that not only informs but also encourages reflection. ([visit.freiburg.de](https://visit.freiburg.de/dokumentationszentrum-nationalsozialismus?utm_source=openai))
