The Nuremberg Trials were the first international trials of major Nazi war criminals. The Virginia Holocaust Museum’s Nuremberg Courtroom Exhibit gives visitors the chance to see a full recreation of Room 600 at the Palace of Justice used during the International Military Tribunals, and to experience the gravity of the trials.
In this video, Irving M. Blank (Fellow ’08, President ’16) and Jon D. Huddleston (Fellow ’11) discuss the importance of the Nuremberg Courtroom Project as an example of what happens when the rule of law is ignored, avoided, or destroyed.
Through our support of law-related projects throughout the Commonwealth, the Virginia Law Foundation strives to cultivate an appreciation and understanding of the Rule of Law in society as a foundation of peace, stability, and prosperity.
