Nuremberg "A travers les yeux de Monsieur et Madame Debenest"

Nuremberg through the eyes of Mr. and Mrs. Debenest is Galerie Zlatin's fifth temporary exhibition.

It takes visitors backstage at the International Military Tribunal in 1945-1946, transporting them to the post-war era, to the heart of the half-destroyed German city and its courthouse, which escaped aerial attack. Visitors will discover the working documents and personal archives of Delphin Debenest, one of the magistrates involved in the French prosecution, as well as drawings by his wife Simone. As they explore the exhibits, they enter into the daily lives of the men and women who attended this historic trial, the foundation of international justice.

An invitation to imagine life inside and outside the palace, this exhibition sheds light on the Nuremberg trial in a highly original way, bringing not only the couple's point of view but also that of other protagonists such as substitute judge Robert Falco.

Family-friendly
Because the transmission of history also requires appropriate media, this booklet offers a fun and educational approach to guide young visitors through the exhibition.

Inside, there are games with codes to decipher, drawings to connect, crosswords... to help them understand the daily life of the Nuremberg trials.
A booklet offering keys to understanding adapted to their age and available free of charge at the Maison d'Izieu reception desk!
